A subannular left ventricular aneurysm is very rare, and is mostly considered to be a congenital anomaly. A subannular left ventricular aneurysm is classified based on the type of its own orifice-submitral or subaortic. Subaortic left ventricular aneurysm occurs less frequently compared with a submitral type of subannular aneurysm. We hereby describe a rare case of a huge bilobed subaortic aneurysm, in which the orifice was located just below the left coronary cusp diagnosed with multimodality imaging in a child.
