Does real-time three-dimensional echocardiography aid in the spatial evaluation of both ventricles in suspected biventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy?
Real-time 3D echocardiography is a useful imaging modality for evaluating suspected biventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy.
May support 3D echo for biventricular non-compaction diagnosis; leaves open validation before clinical adoption.
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.
