Misconceptions and Facts About Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Abstract: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common genetic heart disease. Once considered relentless, untreatable, and deadly, it has become a highly treatable disease with contemporary management. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is one of cardiology's "great masqueraders." Mistakes and delays in diagnosis abound. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy commonly "masquerades" as asthma, anxiety, mitral prolapse, and coronary artery disease. However, once properly diagnosed, patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can be effecti… Show more

“…HCM is one of the most common genetically inherited cardiomyopathies and is linked to ventricular and septum hypertrophy caused by hypertrophic CMs and fibrosis, resulting in decreased cardiac function ( Wexler et al, 2009 ; Argulian et al, 2016 ). Hypertrophy of CMs is due to mutations in the genes responsible for sarcomere function, such as myosin heavy chains (MYH6, MYH7), myosin binding protein C (MYBPC3), troponin I (TNNT2, TNNT3), and tropomyosin-α-1 chain (TMP1) ( Girolami et al, 2010 ; Sisakian, 2014 ).…”

“…2D, 2E & 2F: sarcoglycanopathies; LGMD2I: mutation of fukutin-related protein gene; 19q), Rarely autosomal dominant (LGDM1; 1B due to mutation of the LMNA gene encoding lamin A/C), and Myotonic Dystrophy (DM) is autosomal dominant: type 1 (DM1, Steinert's disease): unstable expansion of CTG the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase gene (DMPK) on chromosome 19q13.3, type 2 (DM2): CCTG tetranucleotide repeat expansion in intron 1 of the zinc finger protein 9 gene (ZNF9) on chromosome 3q21.3 [63]. Almost all DMD patients develop cardiomyopathy early on, on the other hand, symptom progression in BMD patients is slow but may present with severe heart failure [64,65]. Cardiomyopathy in EDMD patients develops in the same way as that of DMD patients [ 66].…”

“…Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the common primary cardiomyopathy, with a prevalence of 1:500 persons [64]. It is defined as left ventricular hypertrophy without chamber dilation and is caused by gene mutations that encode 8 sarcomere proteins: beta-myosin heavy chain (MYH7), cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYPBC3), cardiac troponin T (TNNT2), cardiac troponin I (TNNI3), cardiac actin (ACTC), alpha-tropomyosin (TPM1), essential myosin light chain (MYL3) and regulatory myosin light chain (MYL2) [70].…”

“…Recently, great progress has been made in diagnosis and treatment selection, and the awareness of the disease has been improved in clinical practice (3). However, the diagnosis of HCM is often misdiagnosed as asthma, anxiety, mitral valve prolapse and coronary artery disease (4). HCM is easy to cause angina, heart failure and arrhythmia, which is the most terrible complication of HCM and the most common cause of sudden cardiac death in young people (5,6).…”
