Subaortic and mid-ventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with an apical Aneurysm: a case report
BACKGROUND Most patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have asymmetric septal hypertrophy and among them, 25% present dynamic subaortic obstruction. Apical HCM is unusual and mid-ventricular HCM is the most infrequent presentation, but both variants may be associated to an apical aneurysm. An even more rare presentation is the coexistence mid-ventricular and apical HCM. This case is a ...
متن کاملMid-Ventricular Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy Complicated by an Apical Aneurysm, Presenting as Ventricular Tachycardia
A 69-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with palpitations and dizziness of half an hour duration. The patient’s history included dyslipidemia under atorvastatin. The patient was hemodynamically stable. The 12-lead surface electrocardiogram demonstrated sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a left ventricular origin and north-west axis at 200 beats/min (Fig. 1A). Cardiove...
متن کاملMid-Ventricular Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Associated with an Apical Aneurysm: Evaluation of Possible Causes of Aneurysm Formation
Mid-ventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (MVOHCM) is a rare type of cardiomyopathy, associated with apical aneurysm formation in some cases. We report a patient presenting with ventricular fibrillation, an ECG with an above normal ST segment, and elevated levels of cardiac enzymes but normal coronary arteries. Left ventriculography revealed a left ventricular obstruction without ...
متن کاملVentricular tachycardia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with apical aneurysm.
Midventricular hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a rare form of cardiomyopathy that may be associated with an apical aneurysm. The mechanism of aneurysm formation is uncertain, but it may be related to subendocardial ischemia. In this report, we describe a 57-year-old man with recurrent ventricular arrhythmias that were refractory to medical treatment because of midventricular hypertrophic cardiom...
متن کاملApical Right Ventricular Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy—A Case Report
A relatively infrequent form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the isolated apical variant and it is more common in oriental people, especially in the Japanese. It contributes 25% of cases of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Japan but only 1% to 2% in the non-Japanese population. It may occasionally present in the elderly and classically involve the apex of the left ventricle. An isolated apical ...
