Idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis and acute myocardial infarction: an uncommon association.
Acute myocardial infarction is rarely observed in patients with idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis. If seen it is usually associated with normal coronary arteries in young subjects less than 45 years of age and significant coronary artery disease in those patients greater than 45 years. The case reported here briefly reviews this uncommon association.
