Abstract
The diagnosis of LVNC is easily missed at echocardiographic assessment in older patients. Coronary artery disease is a common concomitant disorder in these patients. Older patients with LVNC have a high risk for mortality. Syncope, LV dilation, systolic dysfunction and late gadolinium enhancement are related to adverse outcomes in older patients.
