Background-Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) often causes sudden, unexpected death in adolescents and young adults. Alterations in myocardial metabolism are considered to be causes for contractile dysfunction. We examined the question of whether metabolic abnormalities antedate the manifestation of symptoms in patients with HCM.Methods and Results-Proton-decoupled P-31 NMR spectroscopy of the anterior left ventricular wall of the heart of 14 young, asymptomatic patients with HCM was performed with a 1.5-T whole-body imager. Spectra of the phosphate metabolites were compared with those of normal control subjects. The patients exhibited a significantly reduced (P
