Right ventricular apical sequestration: demonstration of a rare variant of double-chambered right ventricle with MRI.
A 15-year-old boy sustained cardiac arrest and was ultimately found to have imaging characteristics consistent with a right ventricular apical sequestration, a sub-variety of double-chambered right ventricle. This is a unique report demonstrating the MRI findings of this rare variation.
