Originally published30 Jul 2002https://doi.org/10.1161/01.CIR.0000024107.08695.BCCirculation. 2002;106:e16–e17A 42-year-old man with previously diagnosed dilated cardiomyopathy due to alcohol abuse was referred to our clinic for further diagnostic procedures. Cardiac catheterization (cine loop 1: Figure 1 and Movie I) demonstrated left ventricular dilatation with obviously hypokinetic basal and apical segments, a restrictive filling pattern ("square root sign"), moderate mitralic regurgitation, and no obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract. Impaired systolic function was confirmed by an ejection fraction of 28%. After injection of a contrast medium, the basal and apical segments showed remarkable opacification, as evidenced by a loosened, spongy myocardium without indication of ventricular blood communication with the epicardial coronary artery system. Along with previously performed echocardiographic imaging, hereditary isolated noncompaction of ventricular myocardium (INVM) was diagnosed. Download figureDownload PowerPointFigure 1. Cine loop 1. Left ventricular angiography, 30° right anterior oblique projection. There is a permanent ventricular demand pacing pacemaker lead in the right ventricle.Additional screening of the relatives also revealed INVM in an asymptomatic half-sister (age, 40 years). Her echocardiographic imaging showed a regular-sized left chamber (left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, 54 mm) with hypertrophied apical segments. The myocardium appeared loosened, with deep intramyocardial recesses and prominent trabeculations comparable to those seen in her brother's echocardiography images. Color Doppler imaging of the apical myocardium (cine loop 2: Figure 2 and Movie II) demonstrated blood flow throughout the trabeculations. Fractional shorten-ing was calculated as 22%. Additionally, her cardiac MRI (cine loop 3: Figure 3 and Movie III) showed a typical myocardial appearance of both ventricles in this rare congenital disorder.

MRI of longitudinal section of the heart (cine true fast imaging with steady-state precision).In conclusion, diagnosis of INVM is made mainly on the basis of sufficient cardiac imaging, including echocardiographic imaging, catheterization, and MRI or CT.Movies I, II, and III are available in an online-only Data Supplement at http://www.circulationaha.org.The editor of Images in Cardiovascular Medicine is Hugh A.
