OBJECTIVE Regional myocardial systolic function in hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy was assessed using the newly developed myocardial strain imaging. METHODS This study included 17 patients with hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH group) and 22 normal subjects (N group). The transmural location of the strain peak value (StPP), and the strain peak value (StPV) in the end-systolic phase were measured at the posterior wall by myocardial strain imaging. Left ventricular mass index was simultaneously measured in both groups. RESULTS StPV was significantly lower in the LVH group than the N group (1.00 +/- 0.36 vs 1.38 +/- 0.42, p < 0.01) and StPP was significantly moved to the epicardium side compared with the N group (31 +/- 10% vs 11 +/- 5%, p < 0.0001). StPV decreased and StPP increased with greater left ventricular mass index (r = -0.61, p < 0.0001; r = 0.72, p < 0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Myocardial systolic impairment in hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy may occur from the endocardium side, and the impairment may progress with increased left ventricular hypertrophy.
