Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a phenotypically heterogeneous disease with a genetic basis and variable penetrance. The hallmarks of HCM include dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, typically caused by asymmetric septal hypertrophy. However, abnormal papillary muscle placement, abnormal mitral valve and subvalvular apparatus and apical hypertrophic forms have also been described. Typical medical treatment has been stagnant for decades, although there have been significant advances in surgical treatment of patients with obstructive HCM. Herein, we describe a new class of drugs targeting the specific pathophysiology of HCM.
期刊介绍：
Research advances have contributed to improved outcomes across all specialties, but the rate of advancement in cardiology has been exceptional. Concurrently, the population of patients with cardiac conditions continues to grow and greater public awareness has increased patients" expectations of new drugs and devices. Future Cardiology (ISSN 1479-6678) reflects this new era of cardiology and highlights the new molecular approach to advancing cardiovascular therapy. Coverage will also reflect the major technological advances in bioengineering in cardiology in terms of advanced and robust devices, miniaturization, imaging, system modeling and information management issues.
