“…According to literature data, approximately 4% of patients with LV hypertrabeculation also exhibit aortic valve abnormalities, such as subaortic stenosis and bicuspid aortic valve, highlighting the importance of imaging evaluation for effective management. [14] In the presented case, no congenital defects were observed through the performed imaging studies.…”

“…This is attributable to blood clots forming within the lax trabeculated meshwork of the LV, where blood stagnates. [14] There are cited a limited series of cases where the cardiac pathology was unmasked through thromboembolic events in various territories (cerebral, cardiac, splenic, renal, and mesenteric). There are existing controversies about anticoagulant treatment.…”

Introduction Left ventricular hypertrabeculation is a recently described ventricular phenotype characterized by the alternation of excessive trabeculations with deep intertrabecular recesses that communicate with the left ventricular cavity but not with the coronary circulation. Case presentation We report the case of a young patient, recently diagnosed with ischemic stroke, in whom the cardiological assessment revealed the coexistence of left ventricular hypertrabeculation and dilated cardiomyopathy, which pathologies associated with a high risk of embolic events. The treatment administered followed the therapy for chronic heart failure, control of rhythm disorders that might occur, and the prevention of embolic accidents. Conclusions The particularity of the case is represented by atypical onset through a complication of the disease in a cardiovascular paucisymptomatic patient. Multimodal imaging corroborated with clinical and anamnestic elements had an essential role in the diagnosis.
