A coronary sinus approach using a Gore‐Tex Patch was used to repair an intracardiac left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after a previous bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement. At follow‐up six months after surgery, echocardiography and a computed tomographic scan revealed almost complete obliteration of the pseudoaneurysm cavity. (J Card Surg 2012;27:692‐695)
