Today, with the help of modern echocardiographic techniques we are able not only to describe the characteristic changes when a HOCM is present and to determine the intracavitary pressure gradient, but also recognize the functional irregularities typical for the HOCM. Thus, the methodical progress of the echocardiography has essentially enlarged our knowledge about the pathophysiology of this clinical picture. Today, the echocardiography is the method of choice for the diagnostics of the HOCM and for the judgment of the functional consequences of therapeutic interventions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002312 Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic A form of CARDIAC MUSCLE disease, characterized by left and/or right ventricular hypertrophy (HYPERTROPHY, LEFT VENTRICULAR; HYPERTROPHY, RIGHT VENTRICULAR), frequent asymmetrical involvement of the HEART SEPTUM, and normal or reduced left ventricular volume. Risk factors include HYPERTENSION; AORTIC STENOSIS; and gene MUTATION; (FAMILIAL HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY).
