AB  - We report a case of a left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) in a 16-year-old boy 
      presenting with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). The aneurysm was detected 
      incidentally on a routine echocardiogram performed before an electrophysiology 
      study for evaluation and management of the SVT. The aneurysm was successfully 
      resected under cardiopulmonary bypass through video-assisted thoracoscopic 
      surgery. This type of surgery is a useful approach for LAAA in the pediatric 
      population.
