Clinical Information

• A bulge or ballooning in the wall of the ventricle of the heart.

• A localized bulging or dilatation in the muscle wall of a heart myocardium), usually in the left ventricle. Blood-filled aneurysms are dangerous because they may burst. Fibrous aneurysms interfere with the heart function through the loss of contractility. True aneurysm is bound by the vessel wall or cardiac wall. False aneurysms are hematoma caused by myocardial rupture.

• Aneurysmal dilatation of a portion of the wall of the ventricle, usually the left, or, rarely, a saccular protrusion through it false aneurysm of the heart); usually consequent to myocardial infarction but other causes such as bacterial endocarditis or trauma have been described.
