Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and concentric remodeling (CR) significantly influence clinical prognosis. We assessed the prevalence and prognostic significance of LV geometry, CR and LVH [eccentric and concentric hypertrophy (EH and CH)], in a large clinical population (n=35,602). Abnormal LV geometry was identified in 46%, with CR in 35% and LVH in 11%. 3-year mortality in patients with CR and LVH (EH and CH) was 8.7%, 8.4%, and 10.4%, respectively vs. 4.4% in normal geometry (p ................
