The role of coronary artery disease (CAD) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) has not been thoroughly clarified. To assess the clinical and prognostic significance of these 2 coexistent diseases, 96 patients with HC (62 men, mean age 45 years) who underwent coronary arteriography and 2-dimensional echocardiography were studied. Significant stenosis (greater than 70%) of 1 or more coronary arteries was detected in 11 patients, all aged greater than 45 years. This group, compared with the other group without significant CAD (n = 85), was characterized by an older age (59 +/- 7 vs 42 +/- 15 years; p less than 0.05), a greater prevalence of previous myocardial infarction (24 vs 0%; p less than 0.001), complex ventricular arrhythmias (100 vs 50%; p less than 0.05), non-obstructive forms (82 vs 46%; p less than 0.05), dilated (45 vs 7%; p less than 0.02) and hypocontractile left ventricle (36 vs 6%; p less than 0.01) and higher mortality (36 vs 8%; p less than 0.05) during a mean follow-up of 3.6 years. It is concluded that CAD associated with HC is a complex clinical syndrome, difficult to diagnose clinically, that can reliably be recognized by coronary angiography. CAD seems to play an important role in modifying the pathophysiology, the natural history and the prognosis of HC.
