[Sudden death and ventricular fibrillation of possible ischemic origin in a boy with hypertrophic myocardiopathy].
It has been presented a case of an eleven-year-old patient admitted with a pattern of ventricular fibrillation and diagnosed as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Admission analysis and myocardia anatomy evolution suggested ischemic etiology. We checked the risk factors of sudden death, its relation with ischemic disease and the etiology of ischemia in the hypertrophic myocardiopathy.
