Abstract

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy is characterised by fibrofatty replacement of muscle, resulting in dilated cardiomyopathy. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy affects 1:200–1:500 people and is characterised by asymmetric ventricular septal hypertrophy. To date, there have been two separately reported cases describing the combined pathology of these disorders. Herein, we expand upon these reports with a case series describing longitudinal findings in three patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who developed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
