A 9-month-old boy and 4-month-old girl presented with severe heart failure. The electrocardiogram showed complete and "incomplete" left bundle branch block, respectively. In both infants noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium was diagnosed with two-dimensional echocardiography. These cases are thought to be the first descriptions of the occurrence of left bundle branch block with noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium. Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium should be added to the list of the causes for left bundle branch block in children.
一名9个月大的男婴和一名4个月大的女婴出现严重心力衰竭。心电图分别显示完全性和“不完全性”左束支传导阻滞。通过二维超声心动图诊断出两名婴儿均存在心室心肌致密化不全。这些病例被认为是首次描述心室心肌致密化不全合并左束支传导阻滞的发生情况。心室心肌致密化不全应被列入儿童左束支传导阻滞的病因清单中。
