Novel FHL1 Mutation Associated With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Sudden Cardiac Death, and Myopathy
A 24-year-old man with muscle cramps and a family history of sudden death presented with palpitations. Electrocardiography showed signs of left ventricular hypertrophy and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, and imaging studies confirmed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Genetic testing revealed a nove...

description | A 24-year-old man with muscle cramps and a family history of sudden death presented with palpitations. Electrocardiography showed signs of left ventricular hypertrophy and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, and imaging studies confirmed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Genetic testing revealed a novel FHL1 mutation associated with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was placed. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.) |
