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