Abstract

Left ventricular noncompaction is a rare genetic cardiomyopathy which is characterized by excessive trabeculated and spongioform left ventricule. Heart failure, thromboembolism including stroke, ventricular arrhythmia and Wolf Parkinson White Syndrome are the main complications. In this study we present a patient with arrhythmia diagnosed during preparticipation screening and succesfully treated with radiofrequency ablation and flecainide.
