Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a rare cardiomyopathy due to an arrest of myocardial morphogenesis. The characteristic echocardiographic findings are prominent myocardial trabeculations and deep intertrabecular spaces communicating with the left ventricular cavity. The clinical manifestations include heart failure (HF) signs, ventricular arrhythmias, and cardioembolic events. We describe an illustrative case of noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium associated with bicuspid aortic valve, a 42-year-old male presenting a refractory acute heart failure successfully treated by emergency heart transplantation.
心室肌致密化不全是一种由于心肌形态发生停滞导致的罕见心肌病。其特征性超声心动图表现为显著的心肌小梁和与左心室腔相通的深小梁间隙。临床表现包括心力衰竭体征、室性心律失常和心脏栓塞事件。我们描述了一例与二叶式主动脉瓣相关的心室肌致密化不全的典型病例,一名42岁男性因难治性急性心力衰竭成功接受了紧急心脏移植治疗。
