Method: The echocardiogram showed large aneurysm arising from the inferoposterior wall of the left ventricle and severe mitral regurgitation. Results: The coronary angiogram revealed occluded right coronary artery (RCA) in the mid segment. Conclusion: The patient underwent aneurysm repair and coronary artery bypass grafting to RCA.
