ABSTRACT
A pouch protruding into the wall of the left ventricle (LV) may be either a recess, cleft, diverticulum, or aneurysm. Being aware of these anomalies is essential to make accurate diagnosis and guide management decisions. Standard multimodality imaging of the heart enables detailed characterizations of LV fissures and outpouchings. They often present as an incidental finding on echocardiography, and the clinical significance can be difficult to address. We provide an overview of echocardiographic features of LV recess, cleft, diverticulum, pseudoaneurysms/aneurysms, and non-compaction based upon review of the literature as well as present some relevant clinical cases from our echocardiography labs.
