Core Tip Double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is a rare congenital heart disease. Due to its rarity, the detailed data of the disease are not yet sufficient. We report the progress of a case of DCLV diagnosed incidentally. DCLV was diagnosed using multimodal imaging including echocardiography, coronary angiography, and coronary computed tomography angiography. After one year of follow-up, a thrombus occurred in the accessory chamber. The thrombus resolved after anticoagulation was initiated, and the patient is undergoing follow-up. Through this case, we demonstrate the necessity of multimodal imaging in the diagnosis of DCLV, and the importance of anticoagulation in the management.
