Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with heart failure and ST-segment elevation of the lateral wall

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common cardiovascular disease that is inherited from a single gene. Its clinical manifestations range from asymptomatic mutant gene carriers to patients with severe left ventricular effluent tract obstruction and end-stage HCM with motor restriction. In this case, we present a patient with the main presentation of heart failure and ST-segment elevation of the lateral wall, as determined by electrocardiogram. The patient was finally diagnosed with HCM because of genetic testing and the presentation of extensive myocardial fibrosis with reduced systolic function on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. The patient's clinical findings, electrocardiogram, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were different from those of typical patients with HCM.
