Popis: A 35-year-old female athlete presented with recent episodes of pre-syncope on exertion while exercising. An isolated double-chambered right ventricle was diagnosed by transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance. This defect typically presents during infancy and/or early childhood, is rarely reported in adults, and is usually associated with other congenital defects. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
