Abstract: What is known on this subject?Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare but clinically important cardiomyopathy characterized by the coexistence of compact and noncompact layers, deep intertrabecular recesses, and prominent trabeculations.The phenotypic diversity of LVNC in childhood is remarkable.Dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive forms associated with congenital heart diseases, and isolated LVNC forms have been described, and these phenotypes can occur alone or in combination. What this study adds?This pediatric series shows that the isolated form is relatively common in LVNC, but clinical risk varies by phenotype.Arrhythmias are common, and the dilated and mixed-restrictive forms have a poorer prognosis.
