چکیده

Echocardiography is the method of choice to establish a diagnosis and determine a treatment plan for patients with noncompaction of ventricular myocardium (NVM). The 2-dimentional echocardiography, 3-dimentional echocardiography, color Doppler echocardiography and contrast-enhanced echocardiography are of critical importance for diagnosis and family screening of NVM.

Prenatal diagnosis of isolated ventricular noncompaction of the myocardium.

solated ventricular noncompaction (IVNC), also known as spongy ventricular myocardium, is a rare cardiomyopathy characterized by numerous ventricular trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses, thought to be due to an arrest in cardiac embryogenesis. The clinical spectrum varies from asymptomatic patients to cardiac failure with neonatal death. Prenatal diagnosis has been reported sporadi...

Isolated left ventricular noncompaction in children: two cases with different manifestations.

Isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is an uncommon disorder characterized by an excessively prominent trabecular meshwork seen in the early period of embryogenesis. The clinical presentation of noncompaction includes a high prevalence of heart failure, thromboembolic events and arrhythmias. Echocardiography is the procedure of choice for the diagnosis of noncompaction. We repor...

[Lack of MR late-enhancement in left ventricular non-compaction in infants and young children].

OBJECTIVE Noncompaction cardiomyopathy or left ventricular noncompaction is a rare disease that is probably underdiagnosed. The diagnosis is reached by echocardiography, although MRI provides additional morphological and functional information. Late MRI enhancement is a hallmark of the disease that reflects fibrosis or infarction of affected areas in adults and older children. We aimed to revie...

The left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a primary cardiomyopathy and is characteriezed by prominent trabeculations on the luminal surface of the ventricle and deep inter-trabecular recesses (DITR) communicating whith ventricular lumen and regional wall motion abnormalities. The diagnosis of LVNC is generally made whith transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and cardiac magnetic resonance im...
