Pacing in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: A randomized crossover study [PDF]
Background Uncontrolled studies have shown that short atrioventricular delay dual chamber pacing reduces outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Although the exact mechanism of this beneficial effect is unclear, this seems a

Aortic Stenosis, a Left Ventricular Disease: Insights from Advanced Imaging [PDF]
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common primary valve disorder in the elderly with an increasing prevalence. It is increasingly clear that it is also a disease of the left ventricle (LV) rather than purely the aortic valve.

It is known that a dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction exists in patients, following aortic valve replacement (AVR) and is usually considered to be benign.

Considerations for Prenatal Counselling of Patients with Cardiac Rhabdomyomas based on their Cardiac and Neurologic Outcomes [PDF]
Cardiac rhabdomyomas are benign cardiac tumours with few cardiac complications, but with a known association to tuberous sclerosis that affects the neurologic outcome of the patients.

Prevalence of Anderson-Fabry disease in male patients with late onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background-Although studies have suggested that "late-onset" hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) may be caused by sarcomeric protein gene mutations, the cause of HCM in the majority of patients is unknown.

Estimating prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction using personalized computational heart models [PDF]
Biomechanical computational models have potential prognostic utility in patients after an acute ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). In a proof-of-concept study, we defined two groups (1) an acute STEMI group (n = 6, 83% male, age 54 ± 12 ...

Transient dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in a patient with pheochromocytoma
A 49-year-old woman was admitted with a clinical suspicion of pheochromocytoma. For the past 6 years, she had been complaining of paroxysmal increases in blood pressure (BP), accompanied by sweating and headaches. On admission, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed mildly decreased left ventricular (LV) diastolic diameter (32 mm) with increased ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can be accompanied by dynamic obstruction in the left ventricular outflow tract and acute apical ballooning, which are among the very rare causes of cardiogenic shock. This condition requires a specific treatment approach that
