Isolated left ventricular noncompaction (ILVNC) is a myocardial disorder thought to occur as
a result of an arrest in embryogenesis. Recently, it has been classified as a genetic …

Background—Left ventricular noncompaction of the myocardium (LVNC) has been
recognized as a cardiomyopathy with a genetic etiology. Mutations in genes encoding …

The Existing Evidence Traditionally, LVNC has been diagnosed according to criteria applied
to transthoracic echocardiogram results, which focus on the ratio of noncompacted to …

Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a cardiomyopathy with striking variability in
clinical presentation including heart failure with sudden cardiac death in a subset of patients …

Background/Introduction: Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) pathogenesis is not fully
understood and both inherited and sporadic cases may occur. Clinical diagnosis is only …

The genetic etiology and heritability of left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) in adults is
unclear. This study sought to assess the value of genetic testing in adults with LVNC. Adults …

The first case of noncompaction was described in 1932 after an autopsy performed on a
newborn infant with aortic atresia/coronary–ventricular fistula. Isolated noncompaction …

deep intertrabecular recesses on the luminal surface of the left ventricle (1). LVNC can be …

Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a genetically heterogeneous cardiomyopathy, with
