In this case report, an 11-year-old girl presented with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in our clinic and was followed for 5 years, echocardiography (ECHO) showed multiple left to right shunts on the interventricular septum (IVS) the confirmation of which was done by multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and coronary angiography.
