Abstract
A 17-year-old male elite athlete presented for evaluation after an abnormal pre-competitive college screening electrocardiogram. Subsequent evaluation revealed the presence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He remained asymptomatic throughout four years of follow-up. Through shared decision making, he continued to play competitively and is now a professional athlete. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
