Descriptor miocardiopatía hipertrófica apical
Entry term(s) MCH de variante apical
miocardiopatía hipertrófica apical del ventrículo izquierdo
miocardiopatía hipertrófica de variante apical
Scope note: Miocardiopatía hipertrófica caracterizada por hipertrofia apical, generalmente HIPERTROFIA VENTRICULAR IZQUIERDA (descrita como el signo del "as de picas"), e inversiones profundas de las ondas T en el ECG. Los síntomas clínicos incluyen desde síntomas menores como DOLOR PRECORDIAL, DISNEA y SÍNCOPE hasta síntomas más complejos como FIBRILACIÓN AURICULAR, FIBRILACIÓN VENTRICULAR, INFARTO DE MIOCARDIO e INSUFICIENCIA CARDÍACA CONGESTIVA. Una hipertrofia apical transitoria del ventrículo izquierdo se asocia a veces a la MIOCARDIOPATÍA DE TAKO-TSUBO.

Scope note: A hypertrophic cardiomyopathy characterized by apical hypertrophy, typically LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY (described as "ace of spades" sign), and deep T-wave inversions in EKG. Clinical symptoms include minor symptoms such as CHEST PAIN; DYSPNEA; and SYNCOPE to more complex symptoms such as ATRIAL FIBRILLATION; VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION; MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION and CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE. A transient left ventricular apical hypertrophy is sometimes associated with TAKOTSUBO CARDIOMYOPATHY.
