Abstract
The reduction of all indices of LV myocardial mechanics in juvenile HCM patients was global but particularly pronounced in hypertrophied segments of the LV. The majority of the LV strains and strain rates were substantially compromised in subjects with LVOTO compared to patients without the obstruction. Myocardial mechanics indices seemed to be related to the degree of LVOTO rather than either to mass or the amount of fibrosis.
