Pacing in HCM results in a significant reduction in obstruction, improvement of symptoms and exercise capacity that is progressive and may be achieved after a long period of time. In this series, only 18% of cases needed a more aggressive treatment to relieve residual obstruction and obtain a satisfactory symptomatic status. In conclusion, these results emphasise the need for new controlled studies of pacing with a longer follow-up.
We report a case based on simultaneous occurrence of Waldenström macroglobulinemia, myeloma and amyloidosis as a collision neoplasm. The strangeness and severity of the case presented a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, which required individualised treatment and close follow‐up to achieved stringent complete response.
