Zusammenfassung

Die genaue Identifikation der Ätiologie von Synkopen bei Patienten mit hypertroph-obstruktiver Kardiomyopathie (HOCM) spielt eine bedeutende Rolle, da die Entscheidung für eine ICD-Implantation davon abhängig ist. Wir berichten über einen Patienten mit HOCM und Synkopen. Durch die invasive Druckmessung konnten wir die Diagnose einer typischen Hustensynkope als Ursache der Synkope stellen.

Abstract

In patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM), the decision for an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) depends highly on the exact identification of the etiology of syncope. In this article, the case of a patient with HOCM and syncope is reported. Invasive pressure measurement was used to diagnose a typical case of cough syncope as the cause of the syncope.
