Abstract
Left atrial appendage aneurysm is a rare cardiac abnormality
predisposing to atrial arrhythmias and thromboembolic phenomena. When
discovered, surgical management is the treatment of choice. Here we
describe a case of incidentally discovered large congenital left atrial
appendage aneurysm in a young adult that was treated with surgical
resection.
