Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in living donor liver transplantation recipients -A report of two cases- [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010
We present two cases of dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in 2 patients who were undergoing living donor liver transplantation. On the preoperative transthoracic echocardiography, the first patient showed normal ventricular function and ...

The Apex Cardiogram in Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction [PDF]

Circulation, 1964
The use of the apex cardiogram offers a simple yet valuable aid in the diagnosis of obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract. Characteristic changes in the ejection component of the apex cardiogram distinguish obstruction due to hypertrophic subaortic stenosis from obstruction due to valvular aortic stenosis.

Effect of Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction on Clinical Outcome in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

New England Journal of Medicine, 2003
BACKGROUND The influence of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction on the clinical outcome of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy remains unresolved. METHODS We assessed the effect of outflow tract obstruction on morbidity and mortality in a large cohort ...

Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction—be Prepared! [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2017
The current trend to treat hypotension in critically ill patients is to place a greater emphasis on inotropic support and less on fluid resuscitation in order to limit the potential harm from fluid overload. This combination may trigger left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) in susceptible patients.

Accessory mitral valve tissue causing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction associated with subaortic membrane and aortic sinus aneurysm: A case report and literature review [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research
Accessory mitral valve tissue is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly that can lead to left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We present the case of an older female patient with accessory mitral valve tissue, a subaortic membrane, an unruptured ...

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 ...

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 narrowing of left ventricular outflow tract—Possible mechanism of latent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology Cases, 2010
It has been reported that left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction can be provoked in patients even without significant left ventricular hypertrophy. We experienced a 74-year-old man with mild degree of left ventricular hypertrophy and latent LVOT obstruction which was successfully treated by alcohol septal ablation. LVOT was not narrow at end-
