Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a heart muscle disease with an annual incidence between 0.24 and 0.47/100000 in childhood. Sudden cardiac death is the most common cause of death in this population. Although some medical treatment can decrease the risk of sudden cardiac death, implantable cardioverter defibrillator continues to be the most reliable treatment. Different types of devices and programming strategies can be used in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy depending on each center and specific patient condition. We report a pediatric patient affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who had and ICD implantation in primary prevention. Four years later he developed symptomatic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and a surgical septal myectomy was performed. After the myectomy the patient developed complete left bundle branch block on his 12 lead ECG, and unfortunately none of the S-ICD vectors were suitable after the myectomy and it had to be explanted and replaced for a new transvenous ICD.
