Abstract

Left ventricular hypertrophy is frequently seen in ecochardiographic laboratories and everyone knows that there are many etiologies involved in this condition. This is why we need keys that help us to diagnose the cause. It is true that there are not pathognomonic facts for every disease, but we can suspect the etiology using all the data collected in each patient, basically coming from echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). In this article we sumarize the available information for pathologic conditions (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hypertensive cardiopathy, infiltrative diseases like amioloidosis and storage diseases like Fabry disease) and the heart of the athlete. The last one have been choosed due to, taht in some instances is an important differential diagnosis with a state of disease.
