Dynamic Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction Exacerbated by Thoracic Kyphosis [PDF]
JACC: Case Reports, 2023 We present a 74-year-old woman with kyphosis and symptoms of pre/syncope. Heart catheterization revealed dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (DLVOTO) with Brockenbrough Braunwald response only when kyphotic posture was assumed.

Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction induced by intra-aortic balloon pump in patient with angioedema [PDF]
The Ultrasound JournalBackground Intra-aortic balloon pump is used for temporary mechanical support of failing left ventricle. It works by reducing the arterial afterload during ventricular systole to reduce myocardial work and increasing diastolic proximal aortic pressure to

Unstable angina complicated with dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. [PDF]
J Cardiol Cases, 2021 Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) complicated with unstable angina (uAP) has not been described widely, but patients with these two conditions have several problems. Differentiation of the two conditions is also often difficult because the chest symptoms are similar.

Transient dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017 Dynamic left ventricular outflow (LVOT) obstruction has been classically described in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The hypertrophy of the basal septum and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve leaflet (SAM) cause dynamic LVOT ...

Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction: underestimated cause of hypotension and hemodynamic instability [PDF]
Journal of Ultrasonography, 2014 Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, which is typically associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, is the third most frequent cause of unexplained hypotension. This underestimated problem may temporarily accompany various diseases (it is found

An unusual cause of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Indian Heart Journal, 2015 Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) has been reported with bio-prosthetic and mechanical mitral valves (MV), though it is more common with the former. The obstruction can be dynamic or fixed.

Dynamic Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction in Senile Cardiac Amyloidosis [PDF]
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2006 Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is classically seen in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). This can also be seen in cardiac amyloidosis. We describe a rare case of senile systemic amyloidosis with dynamic LVOT obstruction and concomitant three vessel coronary artery disease presenting with clinical and ...

Anomalous Papillary Muscle Insertion Causing Dynamic Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction without Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Case Reports in Cardiology, 2017 Anomalous papillary muscle insertion directly into the surface of the mitral valve leaflet is rare, especially in a subject without apparent evidence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We present a case of this isolated congenital malformation producing two
