Abstract
Infective endocarditis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a rare clinical combination. However, this combination of diseases increases the already high risk of death in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this regard, early diagnosis of this pathology, timely antibacterial therapy, and, if necessary, surgical treatment are necessary. The article describes a clinical case.

- The combination of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and infective endocarditis is quite rare.
- The main diagnostic method for this condition is echocardiography.
- Treatment of this group of patients requires an individual approach. Depending on the location and area of involvement, the scope of treatment may include antibiotic therapy, lavage of heart cavities, replacement of affected valves, as well as treatment of hypertrophy by septal myectomy.
- This case demonstrates the difficulties in timely diagnosis of endocarditis in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and is aimed at developing greater clinical alertness among colleagues.
