Abstract The clinical definition of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is left ventricular hypertrophy in the absence of other causes of left ventricular hypertrophy. The size and volume of the left ventricle are usually normal or smaller. Most cases are familial disease with autosomal dominant inheritance.

Cardiology Clinics, 1988
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a diverse clinical and pathophysiologic disorder of unknown cause that principally involves the left ventricle and is manifested as asymmetric or concentric hypertrophy. If asymmetric, the hypertrophy is usually greatest in the ventricular septum, but variations occur in which the hypertrophy may be maximal at the mid ...

The Lancet, 1998
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common genetically transmitted disease, defined clinically by the presence of unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy. The disease has a varied clinical course and outcome; many patients have little or no discernible cardiovascular symptoms, whereas others have profound exercise limitation and recurrent arrhythmias ...

JAAPA, 2018
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common inherited cardiovascular disease. It is characterized by increased ventricular wall thickness and is highly complex due to its heterogeneous clinical presentation, several phenotypes, large number of associated causal mutations and broad spectrum of complications.

Cardiology in the Young, 1977
AbstractHypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common, inherited heart disease with a heterogeneous clinical presentation and natural history. Recently, advances in diagnosis and treatment options have been instrumental in decreasing the frequency of adverse clinical events; however, complete elimination of sudden cardiac death still remains an elusive gain.

Acta Pharmacologica et Toxicologica, 1986
Abstract: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is characterized by a hypertrophic and non‐dilated left ventricle with disproportionate involvement of the intraventricular septum compared to the free walls, and by varying degrees of outflow obstruction during systole. Its symptoms and clinical course, pathogenesis and treatment are briefly discussed.

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2002
When an individual is diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), all relatives potentially affected by Mendelian autosomal-dominant inheritance should be evaluated with an electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiogram. Genetic testing should be considered in high-risk mutations where there are diagnostic uncertainties.

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
The degree of clinical expression of both obstructive and nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is widely variable. Many patients with HCM are asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic. Most patients with mild or moderate HCM respond well to medical therapy, but medical therapy in patients with severe disease is only marginally beneficial.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2009
Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most common inherited cardiac disorders, with a prevalence in young adults of one in 500 and is defined by its wall thickening. Methods: This chapter of the supplement will present major clinical impacts of this disorder in its predilection to be inherited; its ...

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2015
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a relatively common disorder that anesthesiologists encounter among patients in the perioperative period. Fifty years ago, HCM was thought to be an obscure disease. Today, however, our understanding and ability to diagnose patients with HCM have improved dramatically.
