Abstract:
Pediatric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PHCM)is a heterogeneous heart muscle disorder which is characterized by unexplained ventricular hypertrophy.Successful determination of a specific diagnosis is likely to have significant impact on management and survival because of the differences in etiology-specific sur-vival.This review provides an overview of PHCM with a focus on its etiology and their heart features.
