Abstract
A 27-year-old asymptomatic woman became pregnant 6 months after a diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and was well until 28 weeks' gestation when she died suddenly while running up stairs. The potential pathophysiological mechanisms of sudden death during pregnancy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic implications, are discussed.Entities:
