Nonobstructive asymmetrical septal hypertrophy and ostium secundum-type atrial septal defect.
We report a 36-year-old woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with asymmetric septal hypertrophy without outflow tract obstruction associated with an ostium secundum-type atrial septal defect with significant hemodynamic repercussion. Diagnosis was established with transesophageal echocardiography. This is the second case of this rare association reported in the literature and the first evaluated by transesophageal echocardiography.
