Figure 2 Computed tomography (CT) imaging of multiple pseudoaneurysms. (A) Sagittal CT cut demonstrating large pseudoaneurysms arising from the left sinus of Valsalva (Lt SOV), right sinus of Valsalva (Rt SOV), and ascending aorta. (B) Axial CT cut highlighting the ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm. (C) Three-dimensional reconstruction illustrating the size of the left SOV pseudoaneurysm (*) and its close relationship to the left circumflex artery (solid arrow) and the left atrial appendage (dashed arrow). Ao – ascending aorta; PA – pulmonary artery; RV – right ventricle; * – left SOV pseudoaneurysm; ** – ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm; solid arrow – left circumflex artery; dashed arrow – left atrial appendage.
