A Rare Mechanism for Spontaneous Closure of Muscular Ventricular Septal Defect in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

In the context of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a rare finding. We present the case of a large spontaneously closed muscular VSD in a patient with HCM. We describe the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance in the assessment of a VSD and its differential...

Zusammenfassung:In the context of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a rare finding. We present the case of a large spontaneously closed muscular VSD in a patient with HCM. We describe the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance in the assessment of a VSD and its differential diagnosis in HCM. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.) [Display omitted]
