Abstract

SummaryWe describe a case of a 60-year-old male with dilated phase of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy caused by Fabry disease. He was diagnosed to have a cardiac variant of Fabry disease by an enzyme assay and a right ventricular endomyocardial biopsy which revealed specific features of this disease and cardiac involvement was the sole manifestation. He has developed dilated cardiomyopathy with sustained atrial flutter and frequent non-sustained ventricular tachycardia requiring isthmus ablation and cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator.
