Multiple left ventricular diverticuli in an asymptomatic adult: Case report and review of the literature
Key result
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging identified multiple left ventricular diverticuli in an asymptomatic adult, providing enhanced ability to determine size, location, and morphological characteristics.
