Abstract

The interesting review by Towbin et al. [1] about left-ventricular hypertrabeculation / noncompaction (LVHT) raises concerns.


Concerning the history of LVHT, Grant et al. did not provide the first description of LVHT [2]. In his patho-anatomic description intertrabecular spaces communicated freely with coronary vessels including arteries, veins, and capillaries [2]. More likely, LVHT was first described by Feldt et al. in 1969 or Westwood et al. in 1975 [2].
