title: [Ventricular tachycardia revealed by a left ventricular non-compaction].
abstract: We report a case of a 55-year-old woman who has a non-compaction of the left ventricular myocardium diagnosed after a cardiac arrest due to a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. The patient was implanted with a cardioverter-defibrillator. A review of literature of this recently described cardiopathy is done.
