Abstract

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is an inherited disease characterized by remodeling of the heart. Depending on the genetic prerequisites, individual sections of left ventricular myocardium change and an appropriate anatomical variant of the disease develops. Echocardiography is an affordable and quite informative method to identify structural and functional changes of the heart in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. During the work, we have established the basic echocardiography parameters reflecting pathophysiological features of cardiac remodeling affecting the course of the disease.
