Septal Thickness Does Not Impact Outcome After Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy Surgery (Septal Myectomy and Subvalvular Mitral Apparatus Remodeling): A 15-Years of Experience

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to assess the impact of septal thickness on long-term outcomes of surgical treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and correction of mitral subvalvular anomalies.MethodsSixty-six consecutive ...

Septal myectomy after failed septal alcohol ablation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Despite septal myectomy remaining the gold standard septal reduction therapy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), there has been a disproportionate use of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) worldwide. Absolute resolution of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction with ASA is not achieved in a substantial proportion of patients.

Transmitral Septal Myectomy for Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2018
Intrinsic abnormalities of the mitral valve are common in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and may need to be addressed at operation.Consecutive patients undergoing transmitral septal myectomy were retrospectively reviewed. The ventricular septum was exposed through a left atriotomy, and the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve was detached ...

Characteristics and Surgical Results of Patients with Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy without Intrinsic Mitral Valve Diseases Undergoing Mitral Subvalvular Procedures during Myectomy

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2020
Background. Mitral subvalvular procedures have acquired a major role during hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) surgery. However, few studies have focused on characterizing the clinical feature of HOCM patients without intrinsic mitral valve ...

Feasibility of 2D antiscatter grid concept for flat panel detectors: preliminary investigation of primary transmission properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Suppressing the effects of scattered radiation in flat panel detector, FPD, based CBCT still remains to be a challenge. To address the scatter problem, we have been investigating the feasibility of a two dimensional antiscatter grid (2D ASG) concept for FPDs.

Effects of septal myectomy on left atrial and left ventricular function in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2023
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).
