A 74-year-old man with a history that was significant for two-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, underwent magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography for evaluation of chronic pancreatitis. A complex cystic mass, measuring 2 cm × 2 cm was incidentally observed anterior to the right atrium on the axial T2-weighted magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) image ( Figure 1A). A subsequent trans thoracic echocardiography confirmed the cystic mass, extrinsic to the right atrium, with no intracardiac communication following administration of agitated saline contrast ( Figure 1B). Multidetector computed tomography identified a pseudoaneurysm of the right saphenous vein graft from previous CABG ( Figure 1C). A three-dimensional, volume-rendered multidetector computed tomography image of the graft arising from the aorta and the pseudoaneurysm is shown in Figure 1D. Cardiac catheterization confirmed the presence of a discrete inlet communication into the saphenous vein graft pseudoaneurysm ( Figure 1E).
