May support tissue Doppler as adjunct for congenital LV aneurysm evaluation; leaves open prospective validation.
Case Report (n=1)
Color-coded transthoracic tissue Doppler techniques can be utilized as an adjunct to standard imaging for the postnatal evaluation of congenital left ventricular aneurysms.
Giacobbe et al. (2011) conducted a case report in Congenital left ventricular aneurysm (n=1). Color-coded transthoracic tissue Doppler imaging was evaluated. Color-coded transthoracic tissue Doppler imaging successfully demonstrated the akinetic segment of a congenital left ventricular aneurysm diagnosed at 28 weeks' gestation.
