Variable Presentation

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Apical HCM) with apical aneurysm formation is a relatively rare variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this case report, the authors share their experience in the diagnosis of this challenging case, in view of the rarity of such peculiar clinical condition accompanied with a variable presentation and clinical course that render the diagnosis of this high-risk HCM phenotype commonly delayed or missed.
