Our study suggests that myocardial deformation analysis may not be helpful in concluding on the underlying HCM genotype, and vice versa.
Accumulating evidence suggests that individuals with sarcomeric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) carrying MYH7 mutations may have a worse prognosis than MYBPC3 mutation carriers. Myocardial deformation analysis is superior to standard echocardiography in detecting subtle myocardial dysfunction and scar formation, but studies evaluating the association with HCM genotype are scarce. We therefore aimed to compare myocardial strain parameters between MYBPC3 and MYH7 mutation carriers with proven HCM. Participants of the prospective Graz HCM Registry carrying at least one causative mutation in MYBPC3 (n = 39) or MYH7 (n = 18) were enrolled. MYBPC3 mutation carriers were older, predominantly male and more often treated with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (39% vs. 0%; p = 0.002). Using analyses of covariance, there were no significant differences between MYBPC3 and MYH7 mutation carriers with regard to left ventricular global longitudinal strain (estimated marginal means & PLUSMN; standard deviation: -16.9 & PLUSMN; 0.6% vs. -17.3 & PLUSMN; 0.9%; p = 0.807) and right ventricular 6-segments endocardial strain (-24.3 & PLUSMN; 1.0% vs. 26.3 & PLUSMN; 1.5%; p = 0.285). Our study suggests, that myocardial deformation analysis may not be helpful in concluding on the underlying HCM genotype, and vice versa.
