We describe an 8-day-old baby girl presenting a fatal infantile form of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, associated with an A8296G mutation in the mitochondrial tRNA Lys gene. She was born from a healthy unrelated couple, and was the first infant of dizygotic twins. Soon after birth, she was
