AbstractWe describe a case of a large apical left ventricular thrombus evolving towards canalization and showing echocardiographic features mimicking a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Only serial echocardiographic studies allowed an appreciation of the changing morphologic features of the apical structure, permitting differential diagnosis between a canalization of an evolving thrombus and a myocardial free-wall rupture with pseudoaneurysm formation.
