Left Ventricular Myocardial Noncompaction with Advanced Atrioventricular Conduction Disorder and Ventricular Arrhythmias in a Young Patient: Role of MIB1 Gene

Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a structural abnormality of the left ventricle, usually described as an isolated condition, or sometimes associated with other structural cardiac diseases. LVNC is generally asymptomatic, although it may present conduction disorders, arrhythmias, and heart fa...

Description
Summary:Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a structural abnormality of the left ventricle, usually described as an isolated condition, or sometimes associated with other structural cardiac diseases. LVNC is generally asymptomatic, although it may present conduction disorders, arrhythmias, and heart failure. Here, we present the case of a patient who came to our attention with a severe LVNC phenotype associated with advanced AV conduction disorder, and supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias at young age, in which a novel MIB1, likely pathogenic, variation has been identified.
