Purpose. To present a rare clinical observation - non-compact myocardium of the left ventricle (NMLV) in pregnant women and show an algorithm of non-invasive instrumental diagnostic, complemented by modern imaging techniques.

Material and methods. We present the first observations on the application of the SMI method (Superb Micro-Vascular Imaging) in combination with other instrumental techniques for the diagnostic disorders of anatomy and perfusion of the left ventricle in pregnant women with NMLV.

Results. Optimization algorithm of non-invasive examination in patients with NMLV can improve the accuracy of determining myocardial pathology with minimal risk for mother and fetus.

Conclusions. SMI method in addition to the standard diagnostic algorithm NMLV in pregnant women is a promising method for determining pathology perfusion of non-compact layer.

Keywords: non-compact myocardium, pregnancy, echocardiography.
