AB  - Left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is an extremely rare congenital heart 
      abnormality, with varying degrees of symptoms, ranging from asymptomatic to 
      arrhythmia, thromboembolic event or airway obstruction. Most infantile cases were 
      incidentally found by echocardiography. Contrast-enhanced chest tomography can 
      confirm the diagnosis and inform surgical plan. We describe an asymptomatic young 
      female infant who had a unique extreme cardiomegaly on a chest x-ray and received 
      surgical aneurysmectomy. Her heart was restored to a normal cardiac size after 
      the heart surgery.
