Non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) patients are considered low-risk, generally not requiring aggressive intervention. However, non- and labile-obstructive HC have been traditionally classified together and it is unknown if these 2 sub-groups have distinct risk profiles. We compared cardiovascular outcomes in 293 HC patients (96 non-obstructive, 114 labile-obstructive and 83 obstructive) referred for exercise echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging and followed for 3.3±3.6 years. A sub-group (34 non-obstructive, 28 labile-obstructive, 21 obstructive) underwent positron emission tomography (PET). The mean number of sudden cardiac death risk factors was similar among groups (non-obstructive: 1.4 vs. labile-obstructive: 1.2 vs. obstructive: 1.4 risk factors, p=0.2). Prevalence of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was similar across groups but more non-obstructive patients had LGE≥20% of myocardial mass [23(30%) vs. 19(18%) labile-obstructive and 8(11%) obstructive, p=0.01]. Fewer labile-obstructive patients had regional PET perfusion abnormalities [12(46%) vs. non-obstructive 30(81%) and obstructive 17(85%), p=0.003]. During follow-up, 60 events were recorded (36 VT/VF, including 30 defibrillator discharges, 12 heart failure worsening and 2 deaths). Non-obstructive patients were at higher risk of VT/VF at follow-up, when compared to labile-obstructive (HR 0.18, 95%CI 0.04–0.84, p=0.03) and the risk persisted after adjusting for age, gender, syncope, family history of sudden cardiac death, abnormal blood pressure response and septum≥3cm (p=0.04). Appropriate defibrillator discharges were more frequent in non-obstructive [8(18%)] compared to labile-obstructive [0(0%), p=0.02] patients. In conclusion, non-obstructive hemodynamics is associated with more pronounced fibrosis and ischemia than labile-obstructive and is an independent predictor of VT/VF in HC.
