Core Tip	Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents the most common inherited cardiomyopathic process with an autosomal dominant trait of inheritance. This review incorporates contemporary research findings and addresses major and controversial aspects of HCM, including preclinical diagnosis, genetic analysis, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, sudden cardiac death, myocardial ischemia and atrial fibrillation. Rather than enumerating clinical studies and guidelines, challenging problems concerning the disease are critically appraised by this review, highlighting current speculations and recommending future directions.
