Acute Left Ventricular Ballooning: Tools to Differentiate Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Outflow Obstruction from Neurohumoral Takotsubo Syndrome

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Despite considerable interest in the syndrome of acute left ventricular (LV) ballooning, its pathophysiology has remained ill-defined. In this review, we explore observational data describing two etiologies of acute LV ballooning: neurohumoral classic ...

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]

, 2015
The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the

Extreme hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Heart, 2003
A 21 year old Jamaican woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was referred for sudden death risk assessment. The initial diagnosis of HCM was made at the age of 13 years and mild exertional dyspnoea has occurred since age 15 (New York Heart Association functional class II), but without syncope or chest pain. There is no …

Disopyramide Revisited for Treatment of Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Efficacy and Safety in Patients Treated for at Least 5 Years

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Disopyramide is used to treat heart failure symptoms in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with known medium‐term efficacy and safety, while long‐term outcomes are unknown. Methods and Results A total of 92 consecutive

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2019
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is caused by mutations in a number of genes. Its prevalence is 0.2% to 0.6%.This review is based on publications retrieved by a selective literature search and on the authors' clinical experi- ence.70% of patients with HCM suffer from the obstructive type of the condition, clinically characterized by highly dynamic and

Echocardiographic Changes Following Surgical Myectomy in Severely Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Insights From the SPIRIT‐HCM Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background In obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myectomy improves symptoms, quality of life, and left ventricular (LV) outflow tract gradients. We prospectively evaluated the temporal changes in various echo parameters after myectomy.

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging. [PDF]

, 2012
OBJECTIVES: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...
