Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the rare cardiomyopathies which can also present like an acute myocardial infarction (MI).
Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (AHCM) is a rare form of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), which usually involves the apex of the left ventricle and rarely involves the right ventricular apex or both.
"Further tests done have revealed he is suffering from an

Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography showed typical of
apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (AHCM) without regional wall motion abnormality and with normal left ventricular systolic function (Fig.
Advances in diagnostic imaging modalities have undoubtedly led to an increase in detection of this rare condition and it is likely that earlier cases have been misdiagnosed as phenotypically similar cardiomyopathies, such as
apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [9], where prognosis and treatment may differ significantly.
