Resection of the aneurysm is uniformly recommended in order to prevent life-threatening systemic embolization. We describe here in a new technique of resection of the congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm and anatomical reconstruction using a bovine pericardial patch under cardiopulmonary bypass, permitting us to avoid under sizing and deformation of the left atrium.
