Left ventricular hypertrophy represents one of the most common complications of the hypertensive state. Indeed since the Framigham Heart Study several epidemiological studies have provided clearcut evidence that cardiac hypertrophy represents an important and independent risk factor for the hypertensive patient. Since the introduction of quantitative ultrasound techniques to evaluate cardiac function and state the research in the field of left ventricular hypertrophy has been par ticularly active and fruitful allowing us to gain new information on the pathophysiology of this condition and on its diagnostic and therapeutic approach. The international symposium Hypertension and the Heart one of the most impor tant meetings held on this issue in recent years promoted by Fondazione Internazionale Menarini dealt with cardiac hypertrophy in its structural molecular pathophysiological and clinical aspects and with related complications such as myocardial ischemia arrhyth mias and congestive heart failure.
