We report the case of a 59 year old male with a structurally normal heart who developed symptomatic LVOT obstruction in the setting of Graves disease. His symptoms and LVOT gradient completely resolved once his thyroid function normalized with appropriate treatment. To our knowledge this is the first case report of hyperthyroidism induced reversible LVOT obstruction.
