Descriptor English: Isolated Noncompaction of the Ventricular Myocardium
Descriptor Spanish: No Compactación Aislada del Miocardio Ventricular
Descriptor miocardiopatía espongiforme ventricular aislada
Entry term(s) no compactación aislada del miocardio ventricular
no compactación aislada del miocardio ventricular izquierdo ligado al cromosoma X
no compactación del miocardio ventricular izquierdo autosómico dominante
Scope note: Raras miocardiopatías congénitas caracterizadas por la ausencia de compactación del miocardio ventricular izquierdo. La no  compactación resulta en numerosas y prominentes trabeculaciones y en una la malla miocárdica holgada (miocardio esponjoso) en el VENTRÍCULO IZQUIERDO. Las características clínicas son heterogéneas e incluyen la disminución de la función sistólica, a veces asociada con dilatación ventricular izquierda, que se presenta ya en el periodo neonatal o progresivamente. A menudo, el VENTRÍCULO DERECHO también está afectado. La  INSUFICIENCIA CARDÍACA CONGESTIVA, la EMBOLIA PULMONAR y la ARRITMIA ventricular son manifestaciones frecuentes.

Scope note: Rare congenital cardiomyopathies characterized by the lack of left ventricular myocardium compaction. The noncompaction results in numerous prominent trabeculations and a loose myocardial meshwork (spongy myocardium) in the LEFT VENTRICLE. Heterogeneous clinical features include diminished systolic function sometimes associated with left ventricular dilation, that presents either neonatally or progressively. Often, the RIGHT VENTRICLE is also affected. CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE; PULMONARY EMBOLISM; and ventricular ARRHYTHMIA are commonly seen.
