A 17-year-old athlete was initially diagnosed with presumed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, marked by deep inferolateral T-wave inversions and mild anteroseptal hypertrophy on electrocardiogram and imaging studies. Remarkably, 6 years later, following detraining, all diagnostic signs completely resolved. This case underscores the significance of vigilant athlete follow-up.
