抄録

We present a Mediterranean female patient with abnormal electrocardiographic findings and a history of shortness of breath during excessive effort (NYHA I) in whom apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with unusual features was detected by echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. There was a single fused apical hypertrophic papillary muscle and akinesia of the left ventricular apical segment. Abnormal left ventricular filling was also detected by Doppler echocardiography.
