  • Title: Simultaneous hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and muscular ventricular septal defect in an adult patient.
    Author: Reddy ST, Paladino Filho AT, Williams RB, Biederman RW.
    Journal: Echocardiography; 2012 May; 29(5):E110-1. PubMed ID: 22329787.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: The incidence of muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD) in children is rare, but its prevalence among hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients is surprisingly high. METHODS: We present a 24-year-old female with HCM associated with muscular VSD without significant symptoms or hemodynamic implications. CONCLUSION: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging plays an important role in anatomic and functional noninvasive evaluation of these patients.
