Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy family history genogram
This medical family history genogram shows a three-generation pattern of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). It identifies the patient, affected paternal relatives, an unaffected sibling, and a grandfather whose death remains clinically relevant to the history.

Scenario
A cardiology clinic documents a family after an HCM diagnosis in a young adult. The diagram makes the vertical pattern and an earlier sudden cardiac death easy to discuss during cascade screening.
Key decisions
- Three affected generations: Robert, his two children, and Noah show a vertical HCM pattern.
- Deceased relative: Robert's death is recorded while keeping his HCM diagnosis visible.
- Index patient: Noah has the double border used for the identified patient.
- Unaffected sibling: Emma is shown without a condition fill as a screening candidate.
When to reuse this
Use this case when a cardiac clinic needs a compact HCM family history before counseling relatives about evaluation. It is a history display, not a substitute for a formal genetic pedigree.
Frequently asked questions
