ABSTRACT: We report a 35-year-old female patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, left ventricular noncompaction, and Wolff-Parkinson-White EKG pattern. Several other family members present the same clinical condition. We speculate that this phenotype is related to the genotypes PRKAG2 and LAMP2 represented by mutations of the genes encoding AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKAG2) and lysosome associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2).
