Septal myectomy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Comparison of outcomes of the transapical beating-heart and transaortic on-pump approachesCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]
Background: Transaortic on-pump septal myectomy (SM) is the established standard for surgical septal reduction, but transapical beating-heart SM recently has emerged as a less invasive alternative.

Effects of septal myectomy on left atrial and left ventricular function in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Aims Mechanical function of the left atrium (LA) and the left ventricle (LV) has been demonstrated to be a prognostic factor in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

Systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve associated with acute type A aortic dissection: a case report describing one-step surgery of ascending aortic replacement and interventricular septal myectomy [PDF]
Background Systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve associated with acute type A aortic dissection is rare in daily clinical practice. The prevention of systolic anterior motion is important, because once it occurs, the hemodynamics may become ...

Surgical septal myectomy outcome for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy after alcohol septal ablation [PDF]
Although surgical treatment of residual obstruction after alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is often challenging in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (OHCM) there are very few relevant clinical reports. Thus, outcomes of surgical septal myectomy (SSM) in this subgroup of patients remain to be determined.

Transaortic septal myectomy using direct septal echography [PDF]
We applied direct septal echography in transaortic septal myectomy for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and asymmetric septal hypertrophy. A small L-shaped probe was inserted into the right ventricle through a 2-cm incision on the right ventricular outflow tract.

Paradoxical Increase in Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Gradient in a Patient Undergoing Mitral Valve Repair and Septal Myectomy [PDF]
The Doppler-derived gradient depends on the magnitude of the flow across a narrowed orifice and the alignment of the Doppler with the flow. Septal myectomy is indicated in symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients with peak ...
