Saw tooth cardiomyopathy is an unusual and rare type of left ventricular dysplasia that is characterized by multiple projections of compacted myocardium that makes the appearance of 'saw tooth' in noninvasive imaging. We present a young man with signs and symptoms of heart failure and reduced left ventricular function in echocardiography who showed distinctive left ventricle features of saw tooth cardiomyopathy (saw tooth appearance of myocardium in basal inferolateral and basal to mid lateral segments) in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
锯齿状心肌病是一种不常见且罕见的左心室发育不良类型，其特征是心肌的多个压缩突起，使非侵入性成像呈现“锯齿状”外观。我们介绍了一位年轻男性，他在超声心动图检查中出现心力衰竭和左心室功能降低的迹象和症状，在心脏磁共振成像中显示出锯齿状心肌病的特征性左心室特征（基底下外侧和基底至中外侧段的心肌锯齿状外观）。
