Septal myectomy after failed septal alcohol ablation [PDF]
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.

Background: Septal reduction therapy via septal myectomy or a modified Konno procedure is the mainstay of therapy for drug-refractory obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), although outcomes data on septal myectomy in pediatric patients are ...

Alcohol septal ablation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: For which patients?
Percutaneous and surgical therapies for septal reduction for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have been going head‐to‐head for the past 20 years with similar outcomes and mortality rates, although contemporary myectomy seems to materialize its superiority ...

Septal myectomy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Septal myectomy effectively relieves left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and cardiac symptoms in both adults and children with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Abnormal attachments of the papillary muscles and chordae and other cardiac lesions can be repaired at the same time. Early mortality for isolated septal myectomy in

Transaortic septal myectomy: techniques and pitfalls [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common congenital cardiac disease, affecting up to 1 in 200 individuals. When it causes left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, treatment is indicated to reduce symptoms and the risk of sudden cardiac death. Pharmacologic therapy is the first line treatment, however if it fails, surgical myectomy

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy: Comparison of Outcomes After Myectomy or Alcohol Ablation
Introduction and ObjectivesThe risk of ventricular arrhythmia and heart failure in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is much higher than that in the general population.

Pattern and degree of left ventricular remodeling following a tailored surgical approach for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Background The role of a tailored surgical approach for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on regional ventricular remodelling remains unknown. The aims of this study were to evaluate the pattern, extent and functional impact of regional ventricular ...
