AB  - Congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is a very rare condition and 
      occurs as a result of congenital dysplasia of musculi pectinate. These patients 
      may be asymptomatic and/or may present with dyspnea, and thromboembolic events. 
      The most common complications are life-threatening thromboembolic events and 
      supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. Transthoracic echocardiography plays a very 
      important role in the diagnosis of LAAA. Herein, we present a rare case of giant 
      congenital LAAA.
