title: Transient ischemic attack and electrocardiographic abnormalities revealing left ventricular noncompaction.
abstract: Left ventricular noncompaction (LVN) is a rare anomaly with increased morbidity and mortality. We report on a 33-year-old man who suffered a transient ischemic attack having non-dynamic electrocardiographic abnormalities. Notably, thorough investigation for the presence of an embolic source revealed the presence of LVN.
