Abstract

Non-compaction of the ventricular myocardium is a recently recognized rare disorder of the endomyocardial morphogenesis. The disease can be characterized by systolic and diastolic heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias and systemic embolization. The present case suggests the clinical role of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography in the spatial evaluation of both ventricles in suspected biventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy.
