In which type of cardiomyopathy does the heart muscle
actually increase in size and mass weight, especially along the
septum?
a) Hypertrophic
Because of the structural changes, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy had
also been called idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (IHSS) or
asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH).
b) Dilated
Because of the structural changes, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy had
also been called idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (IHSS) or
asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH).
c) Restrictive
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is characterized by diastolic dysfunction
caused by rigid ventricular walls that impair ventricular stretch and
diastolic filling
d) Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) occurs when
the myocardium of the right ventricle is progressively infiltrated and
replaced by fibrous scar and adipose tissue
