Five patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy developed left-ventricular dilatation and congestive heart failure during an observation period of 16-29 years. In one patient cardiac transplantation had to be performed. The initial predominant symptoms of outflow-tract obstruction and diastolic dysfunction developed into progressive left-ventricular systolic failure. The question of whether this is a well-defined subgroup of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or whether hypertrophic cardiomyopathy turns into a phase of left-ventricular dilatation and failure after some years remains to be elucidated by long-term studies.
