Abnormalities of mitral apparatus in classic HCM phenotype. 44-year-old woman with obstructive HCM, systolic anterior motion of the anterior leaflet of the mitral and mitral regurgitation. Horizontal long-axis SSFP cine MR images at (a) end-diastole and (b) mid-systole show an elongated anterior mitral leaflet (large arrow) with anterior displacement (small arrow) at mid-systole and turbulent-velocity jets (arrowheads) within the LV outflow tract and into the left atrium due to LV outflow tract obstruction and mitral regurgitation, respectively
