Left Ventricular Non-Compaction
OBJECTIVES We aimed to test the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in distinguishing pathological left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) from lesser degrees of trabecular layering seen in healthy volunteers and, in those with cardiomyopathies and concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, potential differential diagnoses. We hypothesized that pathological trabe...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2013203430 DESCRIPTION In April 2011, a 13-month-old girl presented with dyspnoea, tachycardia and weight loss. Echocardiographic examination revealed a left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC), or spongy myocardium characterised by spongiform appearance of the left ventricle with deep recesses, a d...
متن کاملRight Ventricular Non-Compaction Cardiomyopathy in Children: Brief Review Literature
Right ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy (RVNC) is a genetic heterogeneous cardiomyopathy. Despite the increasing number of RVNC cases, the classification and natural history of this disorder are not completely clear. Also, because the pathogenic non-compaction cannot be easily differentiated from normal trabeculations, it is usually hard to accurately measure the prevalence of RV ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy and left ventricular assist device: a word of caution
BACKGROUND In patients with left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC), implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) may be performed as a bridge to transplantation. In this respect, the particular characteristics of the left ventricular myocardium may represent a challenge. CASE PRESENTATION We report a patient with LVNC who required urgent heart transplantation for inflow cannula obs...
متن کاملApical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or left ventricular non-compaction?
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a familial cardiac disease caused by mutations in one or more of 12 genes encoding protein components of the cardiac sarcomere. The disease is transmitted with an autosomal dominant trait and a variable penetrance. The phenotypic features of HCM may develop at any age from infancy to adulthood, and are characterized by a great heterogeneity in the extent, ma...
