Abstract
Electrocardiographic changes resulting from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy may mimic an acute coronary syndrome. We report a case of 57 years old man, with history of smoking, presented to the emergency department with chest pain and electrocardiographic findings of a ST elevation in the precordial leads from V1 to V4. He was treated as an acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction and transferred to our catheter lab. The coronary angiography did not reveal any coronary lesion. Transthoracic echocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were consistent with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
