Background: Left ventricular noncompaction is a rare cardiomyopathy is characterized by an excessive number of abnormally prominent trabeculations with deep intertrabecular recesses in the left ventricular apex. Adverse outcomes include LV dysfunction, ventricular arrhythmias, and systemic emboli. High spatial QRS-T angles have been identified as a potential prognostic predictor of ventricular tachycardia and cardiac mortality in patients with INVM. Furthermore, multiple studies have demonstrated increased morbidity and mortality associated with elevated QRS-T angles in multiple cardiac disease states. Objective: We sought to assess the …
