Abstract
Congenital ventricular diverticulum is a rare cardiac malformation. We present the case of a 57-year-old man who underwent cardiac catheterization for suspected unstable angina. No coronary artery disease was diagnosed and a left ventricular diverticulum was incidentally found. Coronary CT and cardiac MRI were performed in order to confirm the diagnosis of a muscular type diverticulum and to exclude a post-ischemic aneurysm.
