| Diagnosis | Apical Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, episodes of ventricular tachycardia. | |
| History | A 59 year old female patient presents for evaluation of ongoing chest pain and shortness of breath with exertion. The patient states that she had onset of nausea, diaphoresis and extreme fatigue while doing some general household tasks. She describes her discomfort as left shoulder pain that radiates across to the left side of her chest. She mentions that since this episode she has had daily chest pain, particularly with exertion or emotional stress. She has never had any issues with syncope or near syncope. She has never smoked and denies exposure to secondary tobacco smoke. She denies any alcohol or recreational drug use. Past Medical History: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome with bilateral pneumonia three years ago. The patient has never had pulmonary function studies. Family History: The patient has no family history of early onset coronary artery disease, but she does have a history in the family of arrhythmia. Her mother has atrial fibrillation. She has a sister and a brother, both of whom have atrial fibrillation. She denies any family history of sudden unexplained death or fatal arrhythmia. She has two children, ages 37 and 30, the oldest does have a history of "heart palpitations," which has been diagnosed as benign PVCs. An Echocardiogram study showed the patient has marked left ventricular hypertrophy, but no evidence of obstruction. She does have some mild to moderate aortic insufficiency. Her ejection fraction is normal. An EKG study showed the patient has sinus rhythm 60 beats per minute with a short PR, interval of 110 milliseconds. EKG also demonstrates left ventricular hypertrophy with repolarization abnormality. Flipped T-waves are noted throughout. The patient is sent for a cardiac MRI evaluation. | |
| Findings | » Apical Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with maximum wall thickness of 2 cm. There is mid cavity obstruction and a possible small apical aneurysm. The maximum wall thickness at basal LV is 1.4 cm involving inferoseptum. The maximum mid LV wall thickness is 1.8 cm at inferoseptum and maximum apical wall thickness is 2 cm at apical septum. » No evidence of LV outflow tract obstruction. There is no mitral valve systolic anterior motion. » No myocardial infarction or fibrosis as indicated by late gadolinium enhancement. | |
| Differential Dx | • Physiological Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (Athlete’s Heart) • Pathophysiological Hypertrophy due to aortic stenosis or hypertension • Infiltrative heart muscle disease or storage disorder such as Fabry’s Disease | |

| Diagnosis | Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy | |
| History | 17-year-old white male patient presented with right upper quadrant abdominal pain radiating to his back. He also reported a several day history of chest discomfort, body aches and generalized malaise. He complained of chest discomfort, The patient had a strong family history of coronary artery disease. He had been diagnosed with hypertension at the age of 16. | |
| Findings | ECHO: Summary: 1. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: normal LVED with severe LVH, septum worse than posterior wall. No LV outflow obstruction at this time. Normal LV systolic function. 2. Prominent LV apical and posterior wall trabeculations. 3. Apparent tiny apical muscular ventricular septal defect with left to right shunting versus flow within RV apical trabeculations. 4. Trivial mitral regurgitation. 5. Poor subcostal acoustic windows. Cannot exclude a small atrial level shunt. 6. Trivial tricuspid regurgitation. 7. Normal right ventricular size and systolic function. 8. Widely patent aortic arch with no evidence of obstruction. 9. No pericardial effusion. MRI: Assymetrical left ventricular hypertrophy is present, preferentially involving the mid interventricular septum with a lesser degree of hypertrophy of the anterior wall and inferior wall. The maximal septal thickness measures 2.6 cm. The inferior lateral wall in comparison measures 7 mm. Absolute myocardial mass is 301 grams. Indexed mass is 151 gm/m2 (Z score = 10.8) The left ventricle is mildly dilated (6.4 cm). The hypertrophied myocardial segments are hypocontractile. No left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Normal left and right atrial size. The right ventricle has preserved contractility and function with no hypertrophy. Normal appearances of the pericardium without thickening or effusion. There is normal mitral valve motion with no significant stenosis or regurgitation. There is patchy myocardial delayed enhancement in the septum and anterior wall of the hypertrophied segments, likely indicating fibrosis in these areas. | |
