A case of aortitis syndrome with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH), systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral leaflet (SAM) and a pressure gradient within the left ventricle is reported. Weak pulsation of right radial artery and hypertension were pointed out at age 28 years and dyspnea on exertion, neck and back pain appeared at age 69 years. Her elder sister died suddenly, although the cause of death was not known and younger brother has suffered from hypertension. On physical exami-nation blood pressure in the right arm was 120/86 mmHg and that in the left arm 196/60 mmHg. Systolic ejection murmur was audible at the apex and bruits at the neck and abdomen. ECG showedhigh voltage of the left ventricle. Chest x-ray re-vealed cardiomegaly and calcification of the aortic wall. The systolic ejection murmur at the apex became louder after inhalation of amyl nitrate. UCG showed ASH and SAM. Catheterization data indicated a pressure gradient within the left ven-tricle and between the descending and abdominal aorta. Angiography showed obstruction of the right subclavian artery and stenosis of the abdominal aorta and left renal artery. Pulmonary scintigram demonstrated multiple perfusion defects. Endo-myocardial biopsy of the right ventricle revealed the finding of "bizarre myocardial hypertrophy with disorganization" in only one of three speci-mens, which did not support strongly the complica-tion of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The diagnosis of aortitis syndrome was made and fur-thermore two possibilities, hypertension due to aortitis syndrome or coexistence of HCM, were considered as the cause of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
