Synonyms and Related Terms: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or HCM, Asymmetric septal hypertrophy or ASH, Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, HOCM, Idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis or IHSS, familial isolated hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, familial isolated hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, familial or idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, familial or idiopathic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, primitive hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, primitive hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which is also known as nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and Japanese variant hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or the Yamaguchi variant (since the first cases described were all in individuals of Japanese descent).
Overview
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, is a disease of the myocardium (the muscle of the heart) in which a portion of the myocardium is hypertrophied (thickened) without any alternate cause such as hypertension, amyloid or aortic stenosis.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Although HCM has gained notoriety as a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young athletes, [7] it should be noted that HCM is a cause of sudden cardiac death in any age group and may be associated with cardiac morbidity and disabling cardiac symptoms as well.
A non-obstructive variant of HCM is known as apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [8], which is also known as nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and Japanese variant hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or the Yamaguchi variant (since the first cases described were all in individuals of Japanese descent).
