Clinical reports of INVM have been limited to a few case reports an...

متن کاملIsolated left ventricular noncompaction syndrome.
Isolated left ventricular noncompaction (ILVNC) is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy characterized by prominent trabeculae, deep intertrabecular recesses, and thickened myocardium with 2 distinct layers (compacted and noncompacted). Clinical characteristics, outcomes, and appropriate therapies remain poorly defined. Data were collected on patients diagnosed with ILVNC by echocardiographic criter...
متن کاملDelayed enhancement cardiac MRI in isolated noncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium in a child.
Isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium (INVM) was diagnosed with delayed enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a 12-year-old boy, who developed dyspnea and syncope while running. Chest radiograph showed no marked cardiomegaly, but revealed bilateral consolidation caused by aspiration pneumonia. Laboratory findings showed plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide ...
