Isoproterenol infusion converted a patient with potential hypertrophic subaortic stenosis into one with all the hemodynamic features of severe hypertrophic subaortic stenosis in less than 15 minutes. This response was not observed during isoproterenol infusion in 15 patients with left ventricular hypertrophy from a variety of causes.Further study of this drug in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy of unknown etiology is indicated. Infusion of isoproterenol may serve as a provocative test to identify those patients with early or latent forms of hypertrophic subaortic stenosis. Such studies will also allow a more careful examination of the hemodynamic features of the syndrome before the signs and symptoms have become so severe as to preclude extensive investigation.
