TI  - Diagnosis of a giant left atrial appendage aneurysm by contrast-enhanced 
      echocardiography: Case report and literature review.

AB  - Left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is a rare pathologic entity that can be 
      congenital or, more frequently, acquired. Its complications include arrhythmias 
      and thromboembolic events, palpitations, hiccups, chest pain, dyspnea, and 
      myocardial infarction. LAAA can be isolated or associated with other congenital 
      anomalies such as atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, anomalous 
      renal artery, Noonan syndrome, and Hurler-Scheie syndrome. We report a rare case 
      of giant LAA with intra-aneurysmal thrombus diagnosed by contrast-enhanced 
      echocardiography.
