Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common inherited cardiomyopathy, represents a paradigmatic condition for precision cardiovascular medicine. Once regarded as a monogenic autosomal dominant disorder driven by rare sarcomeric variants, HCM is now recognized as a genetically complex disease characterized by incomplete penetrance, variable expressivity, and heterogeneous clinical trajectories. This review summarizes current evidence on the evolving genetic architecture of HCM, emphasizing the predominant role of definitively validated sarcomeric genes, particularly Show less
