Abstract
Unicuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital abnormality with a prevalence of 0.02% in the adult population. Left ventricular noncompaction is another congenital anomaly with an incidence of 0.05%. Unicuspid aortic valve with severe aortic regurgitation and left ventricular noncompaction was found in a 15-year-old deaf male patient who presented with shortness of breath, orthopnoea and intermittent palpitations. JRCD 2019; 4 (4): 106–108.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Rare Cardiovascular Diseases (JRCD) is an international, quarterly issued, peer-reviewed, open access, online journal that keeps cardiologists and non-cardiologists up-to-date with rare disorders of the heart and vessels. The Journal publishes fine quality review articles, original, basic and clinical sciences research papers, either positive or negative, case reports and articles on public health issues in the field of rare cardiovascular diseases and orphan cardiovascular drugs. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following areas: (1) rare diseases of systemic circulation (2) rare diseases of pulmonary circulation (3) rare diseases of the heart (cardiomyopathies) (4) rare congenital cardiovascular diseases (5) rare arrhythmogenic disorders (6) cardiac tumors and cardiovascular diseases in malignancy (7) cardiovascular diseases in pregnancy (8) basic science (9) quality of life
