Abstract The case is of an 88‐year‐old female patient with an accidental finding of a large, calcified aneurysm near the cardiac apex. Differential diagnoses can be made with false aneurysms and congenital diverticulums. Imaging modalities beneficial for diagnosing LVA are ultrasound, X‐rays, CT, MRI, including PET/CT for oncology patients.
