Cardiac muscle cell disorganization in apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a cardiac biopsy study.

Abstract excerpt

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy has been divided into two entities: apical asymmetric septal hypertrophy (apical ASH) and apical symmetric hypertrophy (AH). The latter differs clinically from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with ASH, and it is unclear whether AH represents a distinct subtype of HCM.
