Sudden cardiac death, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Heart FailureAbstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic cardiac disorder characterized by significant myocardial hypertrophy and varying degrees of fibrosis, affecting approximately 0.2% of the general population, with a higher prevalence in those with cardiac conditions. Despite its frequency, HCM remains underdiagnosed due to its broad clinical spectrum. The disease is equally prevalent in men and women, presenting in forms ranging from mild to severe, and it is the leading cause of sudden cardiac death in adolescents and young adults, particularly athletes. Recent advances in genetic engineering and biotechnology have significantly improved the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of HCM, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis in preventing severe complications. This review synthesizes findings from a narrative literature review, highlighting advances in risk stratification, gene therapy, biomarker utilization, and the need for further research to make these innovations more widely available in clinical practice. The study also examines the disease's pathophysiology, genetics, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies, underlining the importance of personalized approaches to managing HCM.
