Left ventricular aneurysm occurs most commonly as a consequence of myocardial Infarction. Congenital Left Ventricular aneurysms occurs rarely as diverticuli of the apex, as a part of a syndrome of congenital defects or following myocardial infarction in children with anomalous origin of coronary arteries, Post-traumatic left ventricular ancurysms are also reported in literature.
