Abstract

Abstract In this case report, we illustrate the contemporary use of multi‐modality cardiac imaging and three‐dimensional (3D)‐printing in the diagnosis and precise surgical planning of a large ventricular aneurysm with an extensive thrombus burden after myocardial infarction. We further discuss an integrated multimodality approach in the evaluation of ventricular outpouchings.
