Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a myocardial disorder probably due to the arrest of normal embryogenesis of the left ventricle. It could be isolated or associated with other extracardiac and cardiac abnormalities, including coronary artery anomalies. Despite the continuous improvement of imaging resolution quality, this cardiomyopathy still remains frequently misdiagnosed, especially if associated with other heart diseases. We report a case of LVNC association with both malposition of the great arteries and a very original coronary artery pattern.
左心室心肌致密化不全(LVNC)是一种心肌疾病,可能是由于左心室正常胚胎发育停滞所致。它可以是孤立存在的,也可与其他心外和心脏异常相关,包括冠状动脉异常。尽管成像分辨率质量不断提高,但这种心肌病仍经常被误诊,尤其是与其他心脏病相关时。我们报告一例左心室心肌致密化不全合并大动脉转位及一种非常罕见的冠状动脉形态的病例。
