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.

Update on left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular ImagingAbstract The diagnosis and management of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction have evolved substantially since its initial characterization by invasive cardiac catheterization nearly 70 years ago. This review traces the historical progression of our understanding of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, with a particular focus on ...

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

Case Report: Mavacamten in mid-ventricular and apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy—a case of targeted therapy beyond left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [PDF]
Frontiers in MedicineBackgroundMavacamten targets cardiac myosin ATPase, reducing the formation of actin-myosin cross-bridges, which alleviates excessive myocardial contraction and improves diastolic function.

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 ...
