Muscular hypertrophy is one of the signs of hypothyroidism.
These mechanical signals can be blocked by progesterone either by a direct action of this hormone or possibly through the support of stretch-induced uterine hypertrophy.
The heart was enlarged, and showed marked biventricular hypertrophy.
The second possibility is that a subclinical degree of tricuspid regurgitation led to hypertrophy and dilatation of the left atrium and precipitated atrial fibrillation.
The peripheral arteries, nonetheless, were still medially hypertrophied.
Left panel (before the operation): remarkable myocyttc hypertrophy (mean cell diameter: 19-+ 4-2ftm) and interstitial fibrosis (9c fibrous: 229c).
The right-sided ventricle was coarsely trabeculated, hypertrophied and thick walled.
There was clinical evidence of right ventricular hypertrophy, with an ejection systolic murmur of grade 3/6, a single second sound, and no continuous murmurs.
Small-to-moderate sized muscular defects in the apical trabecular septum often close by growth and hypertrophy of the muscular septum.
