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 ...

Comparison of morrow procedure and transapical beating-heart septal myectomy in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
IntroductionTransaortic surgical myectomy is the established gold-standard treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). In contrast, the less invasive transapical beating-heart septal myectomy (TABSM) has recently gained attention as a ...

Beta-Blocker therapy improves survival after concomitant septal myectomy and aortic valve replacement [PDF]
Background The coexistence of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and aortic stenosis (AS) often requires concomitant septal myectomy and aortic valve replacement (AVR). However, data on outcomes and medical management remain limited.

PlasmaBlade-assisted surgical septal myectomy: technique and our experience [PDF]
BackgroundThe pulsed-electron avalanche knife (PEAK) PlasmaBlade provides an atraumatic, scalpel-like cutting precision and electrocautery-like hemostasis. PlasmaBlade operates near body temperature, and its long, thin, and malleable tip can overcome the

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.

Left ventricle myocardial remodeling following septal myectomy in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background: Left ventricular (LV) reverse myocardial remodeling occurs following septal myectomy in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), but it remains unclear whether diffuse fibrosis is reversible during this period.

Transapical Approach to Septal Myectomy for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
A 63-year-old symptomatic female with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and diastolic disfunction was admitted to the hospital. What is the best way to manage this patient? This study is a literature review that was performed to answer this question. The following PubMed search strategy was used: ‘Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy’ [All Fields ...
