Submitral Aneurysm: an unusual aneurysm of the left ventricle.

We report a case of 42-year-old male with submitral aneurysm presenting to the emergency room in circulatory collapse with left ventricular obstruction and severe mitral valve stenosis and regurgitation due to the aneurysm. Resection of the aneurysm along with mitral valve replacement was done through a median sternotomy without any complication and good results.
