چکیده
Here we present a case of 55 year old male who presented with lower respiratory tract infection and clinical findings of systolic murmur at apex and hepatosplenomegaly and later on multiple cerebral emboli which on further evaluation turned out to be myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with cardiac mass with left ventricular mid-cavity obstruction.

Systolic obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract, either at rest or during provocation, is a frequent finding in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Mid-cavity obstruction is uncommon, and intraventricular diastolic pressure gradients in association with either mid-cavity of apical hypertrophy are reported only rarely. We describe a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with...

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (apical HCM) is a rare variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with a prevalence of 1% 2% in Asian population and carries a benign prognosis. It is usually silent in early stages and manifests in adults with a suspicion of typical ECG changes of giant T wave inversion in left precordial leads. Transthoracic echocardiography is the mainstay of non-invasive diagn...
