Diagnostic value of color doppler echocardiography in apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the value of color Doppler echocardiography in diagnosing apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy( apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, AHCM). MethodsRetrospective analysis of 28 cases with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by echocardiography images was carried out. Results28 cases AHCM patients,apical myocardial thickness 17 ～29mm,5 cases of simple apical myocardial thickening;10 cases of ventricular apex、left ventricular myocardial wall thickening in the apical segment;6 cases of ventricular apex、left ventricular myocardial thickening of apical segments of inferior;6 cases of Ventricular apex,left ventricular free wall thickening of apical myocardial; 1 case of ventricular apex、right ventricular free wall thickening of apical myocardial. All patients were diagnosed. ConclusionColor Doppler echocardiograph was an effective method for diagnosis of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
