The following data were collected: type of heart disease, age at echocardiography and at heart transplantation, and frequency of heart transplantation. Echocardiographic diagnosis of IVNC was based on our published criteria. <i>Results:<\/i> The etiologies of heart failure were coronary artery disease (CAD; 37%), idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (33%), valvular heart disease (11%), congenital heart disease (5%), IVNC (3%), hypertensive heart disease (3%), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (2%), myocarditis (1%), and <1% other diagnoses. Heart transplantation was performed in 253 patients (26%) due to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (42%), CAD (39%), valvular heart disease (5%), congenital heart disease (5%), IVNC (2%), or other etiologies (\u22641% each). <i>Conclusions:<\/i> The most common causes for heart failure remain idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, CAD and valvular heart disease. Strictly using the criteria for the definition of IVNC, IVNC is a rare underlying cardiomyopathy for both, heart failure (2.7%) and heart transplantation (2%) in our center.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000147899","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,7,25]],"date-time":"2008-07-25T11:53:26Z","timestamp":1216986806000},"page":"158-164","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":84,"title":["Isolated Left Ventricular Noncompaction as a Cause for Heart Failure and Heart Transplantation: A Single Center Experience"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"112","author":[{"given":"T.","family":"Kovacevic-Preradovic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Jenni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E.N.","family":"Oechslin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Noll","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B.","family":"Seifert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.H.","family":"Attenhofer Jost","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,7,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehi166"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.CIR.0000039105.49749.6F"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001%2Farchinte.161.7.996"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fhrt.72.2_Suppl.S3"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF02577920"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.CIR.82.2.507"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fheart.86.6.666"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehm342"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fhrt.2006.088229"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehm481"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fhrt.2005.082271"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmhj.2002.121264"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.healun.2006.05.002"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056%2FNEJMoa021737"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.CIR.0000100664.10777.B8"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0002-9149%2802%2902723-6"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehi025"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehm429"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Feurheartj%2Fehm536"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0003-4975%2803%2901292-X"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0735-1097%2800%2900755-5"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.humpath.2005.02.004"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.ahj.2006.10.022"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001%2Fjama.296.18.2209"}],"container-title":["Cardiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/147899","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/147899","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T01:04:35Z","timestamp":1745456675000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000147899"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2008,7,25]]},"references-count":24,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,12,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000147899","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0008-6312","1421-9751"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0008-6312","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9751","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2008,7,25]]}}}
