Abstract

Ascending aorta pseudo-aneurysms that erode into the presternal soft tissue and sternum are rare. The author describes the surgical approach of a bulging pulsatile suprasternal mass caused by a pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta in a patient with miliary tuberculosis and a bioprosthetic aortic valve.
