'''Hypertrophy''' is the increase in the volume of an organ or tissue due to the enlargement of its component [[Cell (biology)|cells]].<ref name="Muscle Hypertrophy">{{cite web | vauthors = Hernandez R, Kravitz L | title = Skeletal muscle hypertrophy | url = https://www.unm.edu/~lkravitz/Article%20folder/hypertrophy.html | website = www.unm.edu }}</ref> It is distinguished from [[hyperplasia]], in which the cells remain approximately the same size but increase in number.<ref>{{Cite web | title = Hyperplasia: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia | url = https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/003441.htm | access-date = 2023-02-19 | website = medlineplus.gov | language = en }}</ref> Although hypertrophy and hyperplasia are two distinct processes, they frequently occur together, such as in the case of the [[hormone|hormonally]] induced proliferation and enlargement of the cells of the [[uterus]] during [[pregnancy]].<br />
<br />
'''Eccentric hypertrophy''' is a type of hypertrophy where the walls and chamber of a hollow organ undergo growth in which the overall size and volume are enlarged. It is applied especially to the [[left ventricle]] of heart.<ref name="Kusumoto_2004">{{cite book | vauthors = Kusumoto FM | title = Cardiovascular Pathophysiology | pages = 20–22 | year = 2004 | publisher = Hayes Barton Press | isbn = 978-1-59377-189-8 | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=FHT_w_gUeK4C&q=Eccentric+hypertrophy&pg=PA22 }}{{Dead link|date=August 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> [[Sarcomere]]s are added in series, as for example in [[dilated cardiomyopathy]] (in contrast to [[hypertrophic cardiomyopathy]], a type of [[concentric hypertrophy]], where sarcomeres are added in parallel).<br />
