Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most commonly encountered heart disease in cats. This disease is characterized by an abnormal thickening (hypertrophy) of one or several areas of the walls of the heart, usually of the left ventricle. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is also present in humans and is caused by a variety of genetic anomalies

filling prevents the heart from pumping enough blood, especially during exercise. Although HCM can involve both lower chambers, it usually affects the main pumping chamber (left ventricle) with thickening of the septum (wall separating the pumping chambers), posterior …
What is Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM)?
protein fibrils in the walls of the left ventricle, the main pumping chamber of the heart. In ATTR-CM, the amyloid protein is made of transthyretin. The amyloid protein deposits cause the heart walls to become stiff, resulting in the inability of the left ventricle to: 1. Properly relax and fill with blood 2. Adequately squeeze to pump blood out

the muscle of the left ventricle. As thickening occurs, the heart tends to stiffen and the size of the pumping chamber may shrink, interfering with the heart’s ability to deliver blood to the body. Restrictive: The heart muscle in people with restrictive cardiomyopathy becomes rigid and less elastic,

the ventricle backing up into the lungs and causing something called pulmonary hypertension. It can also happen due to valve damage, or thickening of the heart wall due to smoking or other lung irritation/disease. So when we look at the three types of heart failure we can see that the heart is in failure in three different ways.

left ventricle thickened septum mitral valve Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy An introduction to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or ‘HCM’ • HCM is a condition where areas of heart muscle become thickened and stiff. • The thickening makes it harder for the heart to contract and pump blood out to the body.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Guide
HCM also may cause thickening in other parts of the heart muscle, such as the bottom of the heart called the apex, right ventricle, or throughout the entire left ventricle. Stiffness in the left ventricle occurs as a result of cellular changes that occur in the heart muscle when it thickens.
Understanding Feline Cardiomyopathy
primary disorder of the heart muscle characterized by thickening of the left ventricle. This thickening causes the heart to not be able to relax normally when filling with blood. Over time this can lead to elevated pressures within the heart and ultimately congestive heart failure (fluid accumulation).
