BACKGROUND: The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is considered an essential screening tool for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). A vast array of ECG abnormalities has been described in HCM, although their relationship to left ventricle (LV) morphology and degree of hypertrophy appears elusive. Aim of this study was to assess the relationship of ECG patterns with the HCM phenotype assessed according to the novel...
