Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease that can be both clinically and genetically diverse and is a significant factor behind unexpected death and heart failure. Typically, it occurs in the left ventricular ejection pathway, leading to obstruction in the ejection tract. We present two cases of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy occurring in pregnant women, with a different evolution, monitoring, and management between the two cases. Pregnant women with this disease require special attention because of potential complications. Close monitoring is necessary to minimize the risks.
