Abstract

It has now been 50 years since the initial clinical description of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this regard, it is noteworthy that the first patient diagnosed with this disease has survived to date in good health with an active and productive lifestyle -- albeit with heart transplantation necessitated by an aggressive disease course with progression to the end-stage phase.

摘要

自肥厚型心肌病首次被临床描述至今已有50年。在这方面，值得注意的是，首例被诊断出患有这种疾病的患者至今仍健康存活，过着积极且充实的生活方式——尽管因病情进展至晚期阶段且病情严重而不得不接受心脏移植。
