Multimodality detection of multiple left ventricular diverticula: A case report and brief review of the literature

2019 
: Left ventricular diverticula (LVD) are rare congenital anomalies usually detected incidentally in the adult population. Most commonly, they are found as a single left ventricular diverticulum in association with other congenital abnormalities but multiple LVD are exceedingly rare. We are describing a patient who was found to have multiple LVD on multimodality imaging studies. He had presented with a sudden cardiac arrest attributed to a combination of alcohol intoxication and QT interval prolongation from hypokalemia and antidepressant medications. The patient was managed conservatively and discharged with an implantable loop recorder for detecting any occult arrhythmias.
