A 59-year-old man with hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) who had been maintained with low-dose prednisolone for 5 years developed the characteristic features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Left ventricular endomyocardial biopsy revealed no eosinophilic infiltration but extensive myocardial fibrosis. Cardiac involvement in HES presents as endocardial fibrosis, resulting in a clinical presentation of restrictive cardiomyopathy. HES heart disease can also present dilated cardiomyopathy, but myocardial hypertrophy has only rarely been noted in conjunction with HES. This report concerns a patient with HES who had clinical and hemodynamic evidence of asymmetric septal hypertrophy with mid-ventricular obstruction.
