Résumé
Herein, we describe a 54-year-old patient with a congenital ventricular diverticulum (CVD), referred to our emergency department for presyncope episodes and multiple re-entrant ventricular tachycardias (VT). Significantly, echocardiographic findings were not clear, and the diagnosis was made by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI), which showed the presence of an apical accessory cavity connected to the ventricle and contracting synchronously. CMRI allowed the differential diagnosis with other outpouching cardiac defects. The patient underwent a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) implant and was referred for heart transplantation (HT). The diagnosis, treatment, and main findings of the CVD are discussed in this case report.
