AI Article Synopsis
- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a prevalent yet often overlooked heart condition.
- Fasciculoventricular bypass tract (FVBT) is a rare occurrence, and their simultaneous presence is documented in Danon disease.
- A case study is presented of a family with HCM and FVBT linked to a specific genetic variant in the MYBPC3 gene.
Article Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common but an underdiagnosed condition. Fasciculoventricular bypass tract (FVBT) is rare. Concomitant presence of both conditions is well described in Danon disease. We report a case of familial HCM with FVBT linked to a heterozygous pathogenic variant, c.655G>C (p.Val219Leu), in the cardiac myosin binding protein C3 (MYBPC3) gene. ().

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is an exciting noninvasive imaging modality with increasing utilization in the field of cardiovascular medicine. In conjunction with echocardiogram, computed tomography, and invasive therapies, CMR has provided exceptional capability to further evaluate complex clinical cardiac conditions. CMR provides both anatomical and physiological information of a variety of tissue types, without the need for ionizing radiation.

The left atrium (LA) is pivotal in cardiac hemodynamics, serving as a dynamic indicator of left ventricular (LV) compliance and diastolic function. The LA undergoes structural and functional adaptations in response to hemodynamic stress, infiltrative processes, myocardial injury, and arrhythmic triggers. Remodeling of the LA in response to these stressors directly impacts pulmonary circulation, eventually leading to pulmonary capillary involvement, pulmonary artery hypertension, and eventually right ventricular failure.

Aims: How the underlying etiology and pathophysiology of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy affects LA remodeling and function remains unexplored. The present study aims to investigate the influence of various hypertrophic phenotypes on LA remodeling and function.
Methods And Results: Patients with LV hypertrophy who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) were compared to a control group.
