Abstract

A 53-year-old woman was referred to us with frequent episodes of palpitation, near-syncope, and dizziness. The patient had a history of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in her sister and aborted sudden cardiac death in her aunt. Because of first-degree atrioventricular block and high atrioventricular Wenckebach point, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was done, and apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was diagnosed.
