Abstract: The term 'pseudo' means 'false', 'pretended', 'unreal', or 'sham' and it is likely to be of Greek origin, pseudes means false.There are a number of 'pseudo' terms and syndromes that we see in the practice of cardiology.Even though the meaning of pseudo is unreal or sham, however these syndromes are true entities as described below.These terms appear more 'mimicking' a diagnosis than being truly 'sham'!We attempted to put together most of the 'pseudo'-diagnoses under one heading for reference and convenience.However, every condition cannot be described here in full details and the references are available for further studies.
