| Core Tip |
Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (AHCM) is a subtype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy that is thought to be associated with sudden death. Owing to its atypical clinical symptoms and insidious progression, early diagnosis is difficult. We followed up three patients who eventually progressed to AHCM over a period of several years. Giant negative T waves in the left-sided chest leads of these three patients occurred earlier than thickening of the left ventricular apex as detected via echocardiography. Therefore, we suggest that electrophysiological abnormalities in AHCM appear earlier than structural abnormalities and that electrocardiogram may have early predictive value for AHCM. |
