A 65-year-old white man with acute cardiac allograft rejection had a diagnosis made on the basis of clinical presentation and endomyocardial biopsy. The echocardiogram showed systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve during the episode of rejection. There was no systolic anterior motion on the echocardiogram that was done either before or after the episode of rejection.
