Eleven patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and eight patients with idiopathic congestive cardiomyopathy underwent extensive neuromuscular studies to determine if a skeletal myopathy is associated with uncomplicated primary cardiomyopathy. The clinical examination revealed peripheral neuropathies in six patients, but no evidence of muscle weakness or atrophy. Nerve conduction s...
Right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy is common in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and is associated with more severe disease. Conventional surgical strategies such as the traditional Morrow procedure pose a particularly high risk to patients with severe hypertrophy and RV obstruction, for whom the most appropriate therapeutic approach has not yet been established. We have propose...
A subaortic membrane is an uncommon cause for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction would mask the presence of the subaortic membrane on transthoracic echocardiography and cause a false diagnosis. We report a patient with subaortic stenosis due to flail subaortic membrane misdiagnosed as obstructive hypert...
Sudden death is a known but unpredictable complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We describe two patients who both had a strong family history of the disorder complicated by sudden death. Necropsy disclosed accessory bypass tracts, concealed in one and previously suspected in the other. One died from ventricular fibrillation and the other, who died outside hospital, had previously complai...
Two cases of isolated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of right ventricle without any involvement of interventricular septum or left ventricle are reported. Two cases reported in literature are also reviewed. In these cases symptoms are those of left ventricular hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Right ventricular dominance on clinical examination and electrocardiogram and inspiratory increase...
Background Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (APH), a variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, is generally considered to have a benign clinical course, with localized hypertrophy and evidence of myofibril disarray and fibrosis at the apex alone. However, traditional late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) techniques are not sensitive enough to detect subclinical apical fibrosis. Accordingly, we hypo...
PURPOSE OF THE WORK In patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ischemia may occur due to massive heart weight, myocyte disarray or small vessel disease. We detected elevated troponin levels in some of these patients and hypothesized that troponin release would rise after exercise and diminish after betablockade. METHODS AND RESULTS In 5 of 7 young patients (6 males) with hypertrophic cardio...
UNLABELLED Infective endocarditis in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is rare. Management of this disease is challenging due to the unique features of dynamic pressure gradient over the left ventricular outflow tract and its unpredictable interaction with the management of sepsis. The added complexity of infective endocarditis further complicates an already difficult situation. A 72-year...
One of the diagnostic criteria in order to differentiate between physiological and pathological left ventricular hypertrophy is the wall thickness reduction after at least 3-month detraining period, which is considered a marker of the athlete's heart. This report describes detraining-related regression of LV hypertrophy and improvement in myocardial deformation in a junior athlete likely to hav...
The outcome of 54 pregnancies in 23 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was analysed. No mother or infant died in the perinatal period. Six patients developed dyspnoea requiring treatment with diuretics. Beta-adrenergic blocking drugs were given in 18 pregnancies and three of the infants in this were small for dates and in two fetal bradycardia occurred. The results comfirmed that pregnan...
