Distinguishing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) from its photocopies—such as cardiac amyloidosis, hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and Fabry disease—is critical for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. Echocardiographic features help differentiate these conditions; for ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic heart condition characterised by abnormal thickening of the heart muscle, particularly the left ventricular (LV) wall. This thickening can obstruct blood flow, impair heart function, and increase the risk of arrhythmias or sudden cardiac events.

Ech...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a complex cardiac disorder that carries a risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD), particularly in certain high-risk individuals. Echocardiographic evaluation plays a crucial role in identifying risk factors for SCD, with guidelines from both American and European ...
