The article describes the observation of a child with a very rare combination of noncompact left ventricular myocardium and coronary dilatation in type 1 neurofibromatosis (NF 1). The first of these complications, undifferentiated cardio- myopathy, also known as noncompact myocardium, is not described in combination with NF 1 in available literature, although cases of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in patients with NF 1 have been previously reported. Dilatation of the coronary arteries also refers to infrequent manifestations of vascular pathology against the background of neurofibro- matosis, and the combination of all three signs (NF 1, noncompact myocardium and coronary dilatation) has not yet been reported by other authors. When examining the patient, we found the characteristic signs of NF 1 (foci of “coffee” pigmentation on the skin, multiple nevuses, fibroids of the forearm, cognitive disorders), electrocardiogram features of left ventricular hypertrophy, negative T-tooth and ST-segment displacement 1 mm below the isoline in Leads V4-6, in echocardiography - pronounced trabecularity, thinning of the compact myocardium layer and a “spongy myocardium” in the region of the left ventricle apex, dilatation of the coronary arteries. With magnetic resonance imaging, signs of noncompact myocardium of the left ventricle were found, with selective coronary angiography - slowing of the coronary blood flow. The patient receives the permanent treatment for heart failure and aspirin, his condition remains stable for 4 years of follow-up

Clinical introductionA 32-year old man was referred to our institution for transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) following detection of an incidental murmur on physical examination before blood donation. He was asymptomatic with no significant medical history. Physical examination revealed dual heart sounds with a grade II/VI systolic murmur heard in the left sternal border. An ECG was in normal sinus rhythm. TTE was performed (figure 1A–C, online supplementary videos 1–4) followed by cardiac CT angiography (CTA) (figure 1D,E).Figure 1(A) Transthoracic echocardiography, parasternal left ventricular long axis view. (B) Colour Doppler of modified short axis in the mid-left ventricular level. (C) Doppler flow velocity profile. (D) Cardiac CT angiography (CTA) sagittal reconstruction. (E) Three-dimensional CTA reconstruction of the heart.QuestionWhat is the diagnosis?Pericardial cyst.Ventricular septal defect.Kawasaki.Anomalous left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA).
