Abstract
Noncompaction cardiomyopathy (NCM) is an idiopathic disorder characterized by an altered structure of the myocardial wall as a result of intrauterine arrest of compaction of the myocardial fibers in the absence of any coexisting congenital lesion (1). The diagnosis is based on 2D echocardiography (2), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scans (3). In this case report, the typical echocardiographic images, angiographic, MRI and histological results of a case with noncompaction cardiomyopathy and both ventricles involvement (BVNCM).
