Key result

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging successfully identified asymmetrical septal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a young man with chest pain after unremarkable stress test and CT scan.

Why the study?

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a clinically and morphologically heterogeneous inherited cardiovascular disease often linked to unfavourable prognosis and early death.

Implication

Supports multimodality imaging in young patients with chest pain and family history; hypothesis-generating for HCM diagnostics pending larger studies.

Key Points

To describe a case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy identified in a young man with chest pain and family history of cardiac events.
Detailed clinical history including family background of sudden cardiac death
Echocardiography showing left ventricle concentric remodelling
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging revealing myocardial enhancement patterns
Electrocardiography indicated left ventricular hypertrophy
CMR identified late phase patchy enhancement at various sites in the left ventricle
Management included beta blockers and septal myomectomy with a focus on lifestyle improvement

Population

A young man presenting with chest pain and a family history of sudden cardiac death who was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Exposure

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI)

Outcome

Detection of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)

CMRI is a sensitive diagnostic modality for detecting hypertrophic cardiomyopathy when initial investigations such as stress tests and CT scans are unremarkable.

Cite This Study

Trisna et al. (2021) conducted a case report in Asymmetrical Septal Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (n=1). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) was evaluated. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging successfully identified asymmetrical septal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a young man with chest pain after unremarkable stress test and CT scan.
