Multiple left ventricular aneurysms (LVAs) are distinctly rare and have varied etiology. Manifestations of these entities are similar to the commonest LVA of ischemic origin. Our case is a young male with multiple LVAs with histological evidence of chronic granulomatous disease, and cardiac imaging suggestive of sarcoidosis, responded well to immunosuppressive therapy.
