Cardiomyopathy in the peripartum period due to left ventricular non-compaction and association with Ebstein's anomaly: a case report.

Cardiomyopathy in the peripartum period can be a decompensation of previously asymptomatic subclinical cardiomyopathy. It is important to assess for LVNC in patients presenting with this. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging is the gold-standard imaging modality and allows accurate diagnosis of LVNC, associated structural complications and rare associations such as Ebstein's anomaly. Left ventricular non-compaction is irreversible and has implications for patients and their family members.
