Abstract

A 55-year-old man came with dyspnea on exertion NYHA class –II, for 4 months with orthopnea, and episodic-palpitations, 2 episodes of presyncope. On examination pulse was 110/minute irregular, blood pressure was 92/68mmHg and cardiovascular examination was remarkable with soft S1 sound and a soft mid-diastolic-rumbling murmur at apex. Transthoracic-echocardiography was done which showed a homogenous-mass occupying 2/3rd of left-ventricular cavity and causing LV-inflow obstruction. Unfortunately he had episode of VT degenerated into VF and patient died.
