一个28岁的女性先天性左心房附件动脉瘤成功地治疗动脉瘤切除术，并报道其罕见。通过对比超声心动图、磁共振成像和/或计算机断层血管造影，如果有可能的话，相对容易做出准确的诊断。由于室上性心律失常和全身性血栓栓塞，手术切除被认为是避免进一步发作和复发的最佳治疗选择。已发表的报告详细介绍了先天性左心房附件动脉瘤的诊断评估和手术治疗。（心脏，肺和循环2009；18:10 10-418）(C) 2008澳大利亚心脏和胸外科学会和澳大利亚和新西兰心脏学会。Elsevier Inc.出版。版权所有。
A 28-year-old woman with congenital aneurysm of the left atrial appendage was successfully treated by aneurysmectomy and is reported for its rarity. The exact diagnosis is relatively easy to make by contrast echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and/or computerised tomographic angiography, provided the possibility is entertained. Because of supraventricular arrhythmias and systemic thromboembolism, surgical resection was deemed the best curative option to avoid further episodes and recurrence. Published reports detailing the diagnostic evaluation and surgical management for congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm are also discussed.
