Key result
Concurrent relative ApHCM and AMI in a 60-year-old male highlights the need for accurate diagnosis.
Why the study?
In elderly patients, the coexistence of atypical apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and coronary artery disease can lead to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis of HCM.
Case Report (n=1)
Highlights the clinical importance of recognizing concurrent atypical apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and coronary artery disease in elderly patients to prevent missed diagnoses.
Alerts clinicians to overlapping apical HCM and AMI in elderly; leaves open optimal diagnostic strategies.
