Abstract

We hereby report a rare case of non-obstructive cardiomyopathy in a young female with features of heart failure. Her previous diagnosis was made of restrictive cardiomyopathy but the interventricular septal thickness was increased which suggested hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Patient was reevaluated with a fresh echocardiography after which the diagnosis was confirmed and she was started on medication to control the symptoms of heart failure. Patient was asked to come for regular follow up and was advised to avoid competitive sports and related activities.
