00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc García-Hernández, Soledad author de la Higuera Romero, Luis author Ochoa, Juan Pablo author McKenna, William J author 2024-05 Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), defined clinically by the presence of unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), with wall thickness ≥ 1.5 cm, is a phenotype in search of a diagnosis, which is most often a genetically determined, cardiac exclusive, or systemic disorder. Familial evaluation and genetic testing are required for definitive diagnosis. The role of genetic findings in predicting development of disease, outcomes, and increasingly to guide management is evolving with access to larger data sets. The specific mutation and sex of the patient are important determinants that ultimately are likely to guide management. The genetic/familial evaluation is influenced by the accuracy of the clinical diagnosis and the extent/expertise of the genetic laboratory. Genetic testing in a patient with unexplained LVH without systemic manifestations will yield a definite/likely pathogenetic mutation in a sarcomere (30%-50%), regulatory/functional (10%-15%) or metabolic/syndromic (< 5%) gene associated with Mendelian inheritance. The importance of oligo- and polygenic determinants, usually in the absence of Mendelian inheritance, is under investigation with important implications, particularly related to familial evaluation and definition of risk of disease development in relatives of probands. The results of genetic testing are increasingly important in management strategies related to the use of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator for prevention of sudden death, use of myosin inhibitors for refractory symptoms in patients with and without outflow tract obstruction, and-on the immediate horizon-gene therapy. This review will focus on genetic and outcome data in sarcomeric HCM, and minor causative genes with robust evidence of their association will also be considered.
