Abstract
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a rare unclassified heart disease characterized by the presence of multiple left intraventricular trabeculations. We report the case of a 52-year-old man admitted to hospital with congestive heart failure, which revealed non-compaction of the left ventricle on the basis of the echocardiographic criteria of Jenni. The patient was treated and progressed favourably. Outpatient follow-up was organised.
