Graft Traction Resolved Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2021
We admitted a 76-year-old woman for treatment of an ascending aortic aneurysm with left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve. Echocardiography showed an elevated velocity of the LVOT flow with a sigmoid septum. Mild mitral regurgitation was also detected due to SAM.

Left ventricular myxoma with dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2018
A 24-year-old man presented with sudden motor aphasia and right hemiparesis which recovered spontaneously over 30 min. Cardiac evaluation revealed a short mid-systolic murmur at the aortic area. He was in sinus rhythm. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large pedunculated mass in the left ventricular outflow tract with phasic prolapse through ...

Left Ventricular Rhabdomyoma With Severe Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2007
The incidence of cardiac tumors increased with the improvement of imaging techniques in infants. Rhabdomyomas are the most common tumors in this group of patients. We herein report a 40-day-old male patient with left ventricular rhabdomyoma. The tumor caused syncope attack and supraventricular tachycardia.

Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction

2016
Conditions that result in left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, i.e. valvular aortic stenosis, due to a bicuspid aortic valve, and subvalvular and supravalvular aortic stenosis are discussed.

Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction

2015
Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a general term that includes all the obstructive lesions affecting the left ventricle and the aortic arch. Subaortic stenosis can be caused by fibrous rings, hypertrophied muscle, or abnormal mitral valve attachments.

Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction in Children

Cardiology Clinics, 1991
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction is classified by site of presentation into valvular, subvalvular, and supravalvular forms. This disorder affects multiple age groups, and success rates of operative therapies vary dramatically. Abnormalities in any of the three principal anatomic sites of the LV outflow tract can lead to obstruction.

Technique to avoid left ventricular outflow tract obstruction

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2016
Preserving the subvalvular mitral valve apparatus during mitral valve replacement is extremely important to minimize progressive postoperative left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction. We describe a simple and reproducible surgical technique that prevents the complications that can occur after total mitral anterior leaflet preservation.

Anteroapical Stunning and Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2001
Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is typically observed in the setting of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It has also been reported with concentric LV hypertrophy, excessive sympathetic stimulation, and acute myocardial infarction. We describe 3 patients with chest discomfort after emotional stress, who had pronounced abnormalities

Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction

2003
Aortic stenosis is rare in infancy. It is present in 0.004–0.34% of live births; 75% of patients are males. It ranks 9th among critical congenital heart diseases in infants (2.9%). Incidence increases with age to become the second most common congenital heart disease after ventricular septal defect in the third decade of life.

Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction

American Heart Journal, 1983
The assessment of a patient with suspected left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a common clinical problem. Symptoms such as anginal pain, congestive heart failure, vertigo, or syncope may be due to associated diseases (mainly coronary artery disease), but are often the ominous signs of critical obstruction.
