Abstract

This paper presents a case report of a patient diagnosed with a rare non-compaction cardiomyopathy of both ventricles. The diagnosis was based on echocardiography after excluding other possible causes of myocardial damage. The reason for the initiation of cardiological diagnostics was a history of syncope, the cause of which was finally considered to be paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia. In the secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death, the patient was implanted with a cardioverter-defibrillator. The thrombus found in the left ventricle was successfully treated with anticoagulants.
