In hypertrophic cardiomyopthy, the relation between left ventricular diastolic impairment and
magnitude of left ventricular hypertrophy has not been clearly defined. In the present study …

Abnormal left ventricular diastolic properties have been described in patients with
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. To evaluate the diastolic filling characteristics of the left …

To investigate the relationship between diastolic abnormalities and left ventricular
hypertrophy, 52 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and 22 normal subjects …

The distribution of left ventricular hypertrophy was assessed by M-mode and two-

Ten patients with nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and only mild localized left
ventricular hypertrophy who had severe symptoms of cardiac failure are described. During a …

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a primary myocardial disease in which symptoms may
frequently result from impaired left ventricular relaxation, filling and compliance. In the …

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease state with characteristic pathologic
changes most likely to result in abnormalities of diastolic function. Indeed, HCM may well be …
