Le cardiomiopatie secondarie nel gatto : quando l’ipertrofia non dipende dal cuore / P.G. Brambilla, G. Riscazzi, I. Spalla, L. Baroni, C. Locatelli. - In: SUMMA ANIMALI DA COMPAGNIA. - ISSN 1828-5538. - 29:1(2012), pp. 46-51.
Abstract:
Feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
is the most common acquired heart
disease seen in felines. Hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy is a term used when
there is no known cause, however
secondary, is brought about by other
conditions such as high blood pressure,
hyperthyroidism etc. Cats with secondary
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy tend to
be older than cats affected by HCM,
the cardiac alterations as excessive
thickening of the left ventricular wall,
papillary muscles and septum detected
by echocardiographic examination
and other clinical symptoms tend to
have resolution after appropriated
therapy of hyperthyroidism and systemic
hypertension.
