Anesthetic management of a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy undergoing modified radical mastectomy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. Clinical presentation ranges from absence of symptoms to sudden death.

Echocardiographic Features of Cardiomyopathies: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 42, Issue 10, October 2025.
Echocardiography remains a cornerstone in the diagnosis and characterization of cardiomyopathies, offering detailed structural and functional insights. This review outlines key echocardiographic features that guide the evaluation of dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive, and non‐compaction cardiomyopathies, enhancing clinical decision‐making.

High‐Precision Hemodynamic and Echocardiographic Assessment of Pacing in Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 48, Issue 10, Page 1138-1147, October 2025.
In obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM), right ventricular pacing (RVP) can desynchronize the left ventricle to relieve outflow tract obstruction and allow control of atrioventricular delay (AVD), but may impair ventricular function. In twenty two patients with oHCM, a high‐precision RVP protocol quantified outflow tract gradient (LVOTg) and ...

Clinical Effect of the Modified Morrow Septal Myectomy Procedure for Biventricular Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Background: Right ventricular involvement in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is uncommon. This study aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes of the modified septal myectomy in patients diagnosed with biventricular hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (BHCM), a subject ...

A next-generation sequencing approach to identify gene mutations in early-and late-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients of an Italian cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sequencing of sarcomere protein genes in patients fulfilling the clinical diagnostic criteria for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) identifies a disease-causing mutation in 35% to 60% of cases.

Surgical Myectomy after Failed Ablation for Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesThe Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2016
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a genetic disease of the myocardial sarcolemma characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy. When obstruction to the left ventricular outflow tract is present and symptoms are refractory to medication, surgical ...

Myocardial fibrosis as an early manifestation of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Myocardial fibrosis is a hallmark of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and a proposed substrate for arrhythmias and heart failure. In animal models, profibrotic genetic pathways are activated early, before hypertrophic remodeling.

Plasma big endothelin-1 predicts new-onset atrial fibrillation after surgical septal myectomy in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM) who undergo surgical myectomy. POAF is associated with poor outcome. The role of plasma big endothelin-1 level in
