Myocardial Clefts - Incidental Findings in Parainfectious Myocarditis Abstract. We report a 23-year-old woman with parainfectious myocarditis due to gastroenteritis. A transthoracic echocardio-graphy revealed a recess in the left inferobasal ventricle. For further investigation, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was initiated, which revealed a myocardial cleft, a harmless structural variation of the heart. Cardiac magnetic resonance is a non-invasive imaging technique with a high spatial and temporal resolution that enables a precise depiction of the cardiac anatomy and therefore allows for a differentiation between normal and pathological structural variations of the heart. |
