Does transient myocardial thickening (TMT) have a better prognosis than hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats with congestive heart failure?
In feline cardiology, transient myocardial thickening is associated with a better prognosis than hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the setting of heart failure.
TMT occurs in younger cats, and antecedent events are common. The prognosis is better in cats with CHF associated with TMT than HCM.
