Congenital left ventricular diverticulum manifested as T-wave inversion in a child.
Congenital diverticulum of the ventricle is a rare disease, but most cases of congenital left ventricular diverticula are asymptomatic. We present a child with congenital left ventricular diverticulum whose routine electrocardiographic examination showed T-wave inversion in inferior and V4 to V6 leads. He was successfully repaired surgically.
