title: [Myocardium non-compaction].
abstract: The left ventricular non-compaction (spongy cardiomyopathy) is a rare, poorly known pathology. Disease according to WHO classification applies to unclassified cardiomyopathy. Clinical picture is nonspecific. Diagnosis is established by means of instrumental techniques such as echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. Spongy cardiomyopathy usually affects the left ventricle, right ventricular failure occurs much less frequently. We present a description of the disease in 18 years old girl with signs of myocardial infarction and non-compaction of both (left and right) ventricles.
