Abstract

We retrospectively analyzed the echocardiographic findings of eight patients with left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) and concurrent coronary artery disease. This study was conducted in Yijishan Hospital between January 2012 and May 2017. Of the eight patients, six were diagnosed with coronary arterial atherosclerosis, one patient with coronary pulmonary fistula, and one with coronary myocardial bridge. Regional wall motion abnormalities were detected in all patients. Echocardiography can provide significant information about LVNC in patients with coronary artery disease. However, whether regional wall motion abnormalities are caused by coronary artery disease or noncompaction of the myocardium remains unknown in most patients.
