Abstract

Coexistence of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and severe aortic pathology is extremely rare; nonetheless, the association between these two diseases is fascinating. Here we present a unique case report of a patient with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and aortic arch aneurysm treated by a single surgical procedure.

Keywords
