Since its first pathological description over 65 years ago, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), with a worldwide prevalence of 1:500, has emerged as the most common genetically determined cardiac disease. Diagnostic work-up has dramatically improved over the last decades, from clinical suspicion and abnormal electrocardiographic findings to hemodynamic studies, echocardiography, contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance, and genetic testing. The implementation of screening programs and the use of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for high-risk individuals have notably reduced arrhythmic sudden deaths, altering the disease's mortality profile.

CIMT delivery via telehealth is one option to help overcome these barriers.

Objective: To evaluate the wound healing of recipient and donor sites following keratinized mucosa augmentation (KMA) around implants in reconstructed jaw areas and to compare these outcomes with gingival grafts in native jawbone, so as to provide clinical guidance for postoperative maintenance, and to investigate the impact of clinical experience on the evaluation of KMA postoperative healing through subgroup comparisons.
Methods: This study included patients who underwent resection of maxillofacial tumors, fibular or iliac flap reconstruction, and implant placement at Peking University Dental Hospital from October 2020 to April 2023. Three months post-implant placement, the patients were referred for KMA procedures.
