Abstract
Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a recently recognized genetic cardiomyopathy thought to be caused by arrest of normal embryogenesis of the endocardium and myocardium. The diagnosis is usually made by echocardiography. Herein we report the case of a 29-year-old male with isolated left ventricular noncompaction mimicking cystic mass.
