Abstract
Double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is a very rare malformation which is congenital. In most cases, the left ventricle (LV) is divided into two parallel chambers by a septum or aberrant muscular structure, with fewer superior-inferior arrangement. Here, we present the case of an asymptomatic 25-year-old man who was diagnosed with superior-inferior arrangement DCLV on transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). DCLV generally does not cause serious outcomes. Owing to absence of any symptoms, no treatment was provided, and the patient was regularly followed up.Entities:
