1/7 This 56 yo was the first patient I saw in clinic this morning. EKG reminded of my friend professor Sakamoto, who first described giant negative T waves in 1976 of apical HCM. #echofirst
2/7 Apical LAX view demonstrating marked apical hypertrophy.
3/7 Despite LVEF of 70%, the indices of myocardial mechanics are markedly reduced, better predictors of adverse outcomes.
4/7 Cardiac MR with delayed gadolinium enhancement showed diffuse extensive myocardial enhancement in the apical as well as in the mid LV segments. #CardiacMR #CMR

1/8 Martha, I completely agree with you that the symposium has exciting topics and expert presenters. However, are we preaching to the choir?
2/8 I am beckoned by the famous lyrics written by Pete Seegar in 1955 “When will we ever learn?” and subsequently popularized by Peter, Paul and Mary when it became a favorite anti-war song in the 60s. We, cardiologists, are indeed at war against CVD, of which is 80% preventable
3/8 “When will we ever learn?” While we are rightfully proud of our excellence in medical, surgical and catheter based therapies, we need to be reminded that each patient represents our collective failure in prevention.
