Abstract

Double-chambered left ventricle is a rare cardiac anomaly. We report a case of double-chambered left ventricle in a one-and-half-year-old asymptomatic boy. We depict the use of three-dimensional echocardiography in the demonstration and diagnosis of the condition.

Keywords: 3D echocardiography; Double-chambered left ventricle; LV outpouchings.
