摘要：
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), present in 15 to 20% of the general population, is more prevalent in blacks, the elderly, the obese, and in those with hypertension. In the presence of LVH, there is an increased risk of developing several untoward cardiac events, including myocardial ischemia and infarction, arrhythmias and sudden death, and congestive heart failure.
