摘要
False aneurysm, or pseudoaneurysm, formation is a well-recognized complication of cardiac surgery that can occur in the setting of postoperative mediastinitis. We present the first case report of a pseudoaneurysm involving flap closure of the infected mediastinum and discuss the presentation and diagnosis of this life-threatening complication.
