Abstract:
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and subaortic membrane (SAS) are distinct cardiac conditions, but their coexistence presents complex diagnostic challenges. We report the case of a 52-year-old male with HOCM and a concurrent subaortic membrane, highlighting the intricacies of diagnosis and management. The patient's presentation included symptoms of dyspnea and chest tightness, and diagnostic evaluations revealed a unique combination of dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction from HOCM and fixed obstruction from the subaortic membrane. This case emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive diagnostic workup to guide appropriate treatment decisions when managing multiple cardiac abnormalities.
