Title: Repair of an isolated congenital left ventricular diverticulum. Author: Sakiyalak P, Slisatkorn W, Sriyoschati S. Journal: J Card Surg; 2008; 23(6):759-61. PubMed ID: 19017007. Abstract: Left ventricular diverticulum is a rare congenital anomaly. We report two cases of isolated left ventricular diverticulum with a different clinical presentation. The first case was a nine-year-old boy with a history of congestive heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia. The second case was a 51-year-old asymptomatic male with abnormal electrocardiogram. Both patients had the diagnosis confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and underwent successful surgical correction of the abnormality.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
