Early onset and progression of left ventricular remodeling after alcohol septal ablation in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background - Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) reduces left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) pressure gradient in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), which leads to left ventricular remodeling.

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 ...

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: alcohol septal ablation [PDF]
Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) was introduced in 1994 as an alternative to septal myectomy for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and symptoms refractory to medical therapy. This procedure alleviates symptoms by producing a targeted, limited infarction of the upper interventricular septum, resulting in an increase in left ventricular ...

Alcohol septal ablation – An evolving procedure
Alcohol septal ablation was first reported by Sigwart in 1985.1 Since then the use of this procedure has increased exponentially and today the number of alcohol ablations performed far exceed that of surgical myectomy.2 Alcohol septal ablation has been reported from Indian centres since the mid-1990s.3 ...

Background Prior national data showed a substantial in‐hospital mortality in septal myectomy (SM) with an inverse volume–outcomes relationship. This study sought to assess the contemporary outcomes of septal reduction therapy and volume–outcome ...

Septal myectomy after failed septal alcohol ablation [PDF]
Despite septal myectomy remaining the gold standard septal reduction therapy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), there has been a disproportionate use of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) worldwide. Absolute resolution of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction with ASA is not achieved in a substantial proportion of patients.

Glue septal ablation: A promising alternative to alcohol septal ablation [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is defined as myocardial hypertrophy in the absence of another cardiac or systemic disease capable of producing the magnitude of present hypertrophy. In about 70% of patients with HCM, there is left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction (LVOTO) and this is known as obstructive type of hypertrophic ...

Alcohol Septal Ablation after Suboptimal Surgical Septal Myomectomy [PDF]
•The ideal therapy for HCM after failed surgical myomectomy is not established.•ASA after failed surgical myomectomy is a safe and effective therapeutic option.•Agitated saline is a safe alternative when contrast agent is not available.

Septal reduction techniques can reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who was a poor candidate for surgical myectomy and alcohol septal ablation, endocardial ...
