Congenital left ventricular aneurysm is a rare anomalous of
the heart. Association with other congenital heart defects is
common. Imaging modalities have an important role in the
diagnosis of the disease, due to its asymptomatic nature. In
this article, we report a one-month-old girl with congenital
left ventricular aneurysm, a rare condition existing together
with congenital heart disease, which was diagnosed by twodimensional
echocardiography and angiography.
