INTRODUCTION
Infective endocarditis complicating HCM is a rare entity with a <5% 10-year risk of disease progression [1].
The incidence of IE among HCM patients has been described to be 18 to 28 times higher than in the general population and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and enlarged left atria have been reported as factors
that increase the risk of IE in HCM [6]
Prognosis is worse in patients with IE associated with HOCM than in patients with IE alone or associated with congenital heart disease [6]
This report describes a pediatric case of HOCM with IE and its cerebral complication
