While hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in general requires an absolute wall thickness ≥15 mm, a threshold for relative apical hypertrophy (ratio 1.5) has been proposed. We report the case of a 57-year-old man with newly arisen chest pain and slight T-wave inversions. Serial cardiac magnetic resonance imaging over 9 years documented the gradual evolvement of late-onset apical hypertrophy with apical fibrosis and strain abnormalities. Symptoms, electrocardiographic changes, and relative apical hypertrophy preceded the traditional imaging criteria of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Relative apical hypertrophy can be an early manifestation of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Persistent cardiac signs and symptoms warrant a follow-up, as apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can evolve over time. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging readily visualizes apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and associated changes in tissue composition and function.

Aortic complications can happen during left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) insertion and its treatment remains challenging. Percutaneous aortic interventions can be an alternative to surgery in such high-risk cases. We present a patient with idiopatic dilated cardiomyopathy and advanced heart failure requiring LVAD insertion as a bridge to transplant, who developed an aortic pseudoaneurysm below the anastomosis of the LVAD tube. He was successfully tr
