Abstract
We present a case of mitral endocarditis in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with systolic anterior motion of anterior leaflet. Perforated anterior leaflet was repaired and extended septal myectomy was concomitantly performed to control systolic anterior motion and mitral regurgitation.
