Figure 2

Electrocardiogram upon admission showing bradycardic sinus rhythm at 45 bpm with a corrected QT by Bazett formula of 416 ms, with Cornell criteria for left ventricle hypertrophy, and negative T waves in the lateral territory – DI, aVL, V5, V6.

Figure 3

Echocardiography with normal sized left ventricle but severe concentric hypertrophy and normal systolic function. Tissue Doppler Imaging revealed subclinical longitudinal systolic dysfunction with reduced global longitudinal strain predominantly in the infero-lateral basal segments.
