Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM, or HOCM when obstructive) is a condition in which the heart thickens for no apparent reason. The interventricular septum and ventricles are the most commonly affected areas of the heart. This reduces the heart's ability to effectively pump blood and may also cause electrical conduction problems.
