LV APICAL HYPERTROPHY
64-year-old male with pancreatic carcinoma and apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
CXR shows left ventricular configuration with an unusually prominent left ventricle. CT shows dominant apical hypertrophy of the LV.
Echocardiogram confirms the presence of apical hypertrophy with mi systolic gradient within the LV cavity of 38mmHg.
