Left ventricle pseudoaneurysm is a rare but serious complication, most often secondary to myocardial infarction. It is associated with high mortality due to a significant risk of rupture. We present a case of a patient with a large basal pseudoaneurysm of the lateral wall of the left ventricle. The pseudoaneurysm is discovered from a chest radiography performed after a COVID-19 infection. The diagnosis is confirmed by echocardiography and ventriculography. The patient underwent surgical treatment by endoventricular patch plasty – Dor procedure. The patient in our case lacked the typical symptoms and ECG features, furthermore he had no history of myocardial infarction, cardiac surgery, trauma or endocarditis.
