Abstract
A double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is a rare congenital cardiac structural anomaly. This case report describes a 26-year-old patient with a unique DCLV variant characterized by either non-communication or severely obstructed connection between the main chamber and accessory chamber. Comprehensive imaging assessment with transthoracic echocardiography, contrast echocardiography, and CMR proved essential for accurate diagnosis and differentiation of this uncommon cardiac developmental disorder.
