Alcohol Septal Ablation [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical & Clinical Research, 2015
Since 1994, alcohol septal ablation (ASA) has been used as a minimally invasive treatment of patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, resistant to conservative medical therapy. This catheter-based intervention consists of injecting absolute

Alcohol Septal Ablation or Mavacamten for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

J Clin Med, 2023
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disease characterized by an increased left ventricular wall thickness in the absence of increased afterload conditions. In addition to diastolic dysfunction, obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract is common in HCM and has an important influence on symptoms and outcome. Over the last five decades

Recurrent and Progressive CAVB After Alcohol Septal Ablation for HOCM: Bridging Therapy With a Semi‐Permanent Pacemaker [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
In patients undergoing alcohol septal ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, complete atrioventricular block can be delayed and recurrent. A semi‐permanent pacemaker serves as an effective bridging therapy, allowing for extended monitoring
