Abstract

Non compacted cardiomyopathy (NCNC) frequently represents an abnormality of myocardial morphology associated with a genetic etiology, however, there are few descriptions of its association with autoimmune diseases. We present a review of the literature and the case of a lupus patient who was admitted with signs of decompensated heart failure with confirmation of VINC by echocardiography and cardiac nuclear magnetic resonance (C-MRI).
