ABSTRACT

The anesthetic behavior of a case of chronic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm secondary to a complication of transmural myocardial infarction, a rare and almost always fatal complication, is reported. This report describes the case of a 60-year-old woman with acute heart failure, this is a consequence of a heart attack that occurred 5 months ago, which generated the complication of which we refer. Perioperative anesthetic management was achieved by focusing on maintaining a stable blood pressure to ensure cerebral perfusion and reduce the risk of complete rupture of the aneurysm into the mediastinal space.
