Cardiovascular Events in Pregnancy With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy and Pregnancy Risk Associated With Pregnancy in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

OBJECTIVES We sought to assess mortality and morbidity in pregnant women with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). BACKGROUND The risk associated with pregnancy in women with HCM is an important and increasingly frequent clinical issue for which systematic data are not available and a large measure of uncertainty persists. METHODS Maternal mortality in 91 consecutively evaluated families with HCM...

DIFFUSE CORONARY ARTERIAL ECTASIA WITH HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY

A 40 year old male, a known case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, was admitted for catheterization. At catheterization and angiography, septum was hypertrophied to about 5cm and diffuse coronary artery aneurysm was revealed. We found no previous report of coronary artery aneurysm in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Stroke and Embolic Events in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most common genetic cardiac disorders, with markedly heterogeneous clinical manifestations and natural history. Although stroke and systemic embolic events are known to occur as complications of HCM, few data are available on the occurrence and profile of these events in this patient population. In a previous study, stroke and systemic embolic eve...
