Congenital left ventricular diverticula are rare cardiac malformations. Few data are available regarding their prevalence, which is estimated to be around 0.04% and 0.7%, according to retrospective series. In our case a diverticular apical lesion of the left ventricle was incidentally found on an urgent thoracic computed tomography scan, performed to rule out abdominal aortic rupture. A thorough evaluation with echocardiography, coronary angiography, ventriculography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed. After discussion in our heart team, which took into consideration the lack of cardiac symptoms, the small size of the diverticulum and the absence of thrombus, we decided on a conservative option.

Interatrial communications are the most frequent congenital heart malformation in adulthood. Four different types of atrial defect are identified: the ostium secundum, ostium primum, sinus venosus and unroofed coronary sinus types. The unroofed coronary sinus defect is the rarest form of interatrial communication accounting for <1% overall. The presence of a persistent left superior vena cava is frequent in this form of atrial defect and associated anomalous pulmonary venous return has been described. The sinus venosus form – accounting for 5 to 10% of atrial defects – is a communication between the two atria localised within the mouth of the caval vein, which has a biatrial connection. It most frequently involves the superior vena cava and anomalous pulmonary venous return (usually the right upper pulmonary vein) and is associated with 85% of atrial defects. We report typical examples of sinus venosus and unroofed coronary sinus defects associated with anomalous pulmonary venous return. Full article
