“…4 However, in non-Asian populations the reported prevalence is 1%-3%. 6 It is well known that there is overlap between AHCM, mid-cavitary hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and apical aneurysmal formation. Although AHCM has a more benign course compared to HCM, there is a higher risk of arrhythmia and thromboembolic phenomena after development of an apical aneurysm.…”

“…But it was Yamaguchi that described the syndrome and its ventriculographic features in 1979 [3]. Kubo and col-leagues [4] used echocardiography in a cohort of 264 patients to define the imaging characteristics and Chen et al [5] utilized 2D echocardiography to further classify apical HCM and to assess the wall thickness. Kitaoka et al found the apical HCM in 15% of Japanese and 3% of American patients of HCM.…”

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (apical HCM) is a rare variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with a prevalence of 1%-2% in Asian population and carries a benign prognosis. It is usually silent in early stages and manifests in adults with a suspicion of typical ECG changes of giant T wave inversion in left precordial leads. Transthoracic echocardiography is the mainstay of non-invasive diagnosis and provides a heterogeneous appearance of its morphological features with a spade-shaped LV (left ventricular) cavity. Background of this case study describes the apical HCM in an asymptomatic male at the age of 54 years old and also predicts the mixed and mid-ventricular forms of left ventricular HCM at this region of Thoothukudi in India.

Syncope in a Middle-aged Man

A man in his 40s with hypertension was brought to the emergency department after becoming unresponsive during descent on a commercial flight. He was alert and oriented with normal heart rate and blood pressure by emergency medical services evaluation and in the emergency department. He had no recollection of the event, with history notable only for more than usual alcohol use the 2 days prior, including drinking just prior to boarding the plane. A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was obtained (Figure).Question: Based on the ECG findings, what is the most likely diagnosis? InterpretationThe ECG showed normal sinus rhythm with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) by the Sokolov-Lyon criteria and likely intra-atrial conduction delay with a biphasic P wave in leads III and aVF. There were 1-to 2-mm ST-segment elevations in leads V 1 to V 3 with 2-to 3-mm ST depressions in leads V 5 to V 6 . There were T-wave inversions (TWIs) in leads I, aVL, II, and aVF and deep inversions in leads V 4 to V 6 .
