Abstract

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common genetic cardiac disease. Its clinical presentation is heterogeneous, ranging from asymptomatic patients to sudden death in young individuals. This complication is unpredictable, and no preventive medical treatment has proven effective. We report the case of a 32-year-old individual who was admitted for poorly tolerated ventricular tachycardia (VT), which was resolved with external electrical shock. We diagnosed localized hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, confirmed by MRI. This paper outlines the patient's medical journey, highlighting the rhythm complications experienced and the various therapeutic options available.
