Sequential Alcohol Septal Ablation to Resolve LV Outflow Tract Obstruction After Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement [PDF]
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) is a notorious complication of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). Computed tomography–derived simulations can predict neo-LVOTO post-TMVR, whereas alcohol septal ablation can mitigate neo ...

Alcohol septal ablation to overcome shock
A 69-year-old man, known with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), was referred to our hospital because of progressive hypoxaemia and sepsis after admission for respiratory infection. Once at the emergency department, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, intubation and mechanical ventilation were necessary.

Alcohol Septal Ablation for the Treatment of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited myocardial disorder characterised by left ventricular hypertrophy. A subgroup of patients develops limiting symptoms in association with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO). Current international guidelines recommend that symptomatic patients are initially treated by alleviating ...

The efficacy and safety of alcohol septal ablation stratified by alcohol dosage for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is recommended for moderate to severe symptomatic patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. The current guidelines don not recommend particular alcohol doses and the amount of alcohol injected into ...

Percutaneous septal ablation for left mid-ventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a case report [PDF]
Background Mid-ventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (MVOHC) is a rare type of cardiomyopathy. The diagnosis is based on the hourglass appearance on the left ventriculogram and the presence of pressure gradient between apical and basal ...

Three Achilles’ heels of alcohol septal ablation
This manuscript looks at basic limitations of alcohol septal ablation in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. They include high-grade atrioventricular blockages, residual obstructions of the left ventricular outflow tract and the so-called ...
