Long-term outcomes of surgery for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a pediatric cohortCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Open, 2023
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 ...

Endocardial Radiofrequency Ablation vs. Septal Myectomy in Patients With Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2022
BackgroundSeptal myectomy (SM) has been the gold standard therapy for most patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). Endocardial radiofrequency ablation of septal hypertrophy (ERASH) is a novel treatment for septal reduction. We aimed

Endocardial septal ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy

open access: yesTürk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2017
Summary– Septal reduction therapy (SRT) is the accepted therapeutic option for symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). At this time, surgical septal myectomy is the gold standard method, but alcohol septal ablation is an acceptable ...

Septal reduction therapies in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: comparison of surgical septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation

open access: yesInterventional Cardiology, 2014
Abstract Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, either resting or labile, occurs in approximately 70% of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and is a major cause of symptoms. In patients with obstructive physiology and medically refractory symptoms, septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation reduce the left ventricular outflow tract ...

Septal Reduction Therapy for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Sudden Death [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
There is a subset of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction who have severely limiting symptoms despite optimal medical therapy.1 Septal reduction therapy, consisting of a surgical procedure (septal myectomy) or a catheter-based therapy (alcohol septal ablation), has been used to treat this subset of ...

Radiofrequency ablation in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Study objective: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disease that can cause left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. This study analyzed the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RA) in improving clinical and hemodynamic factors in ...

Local myocardial stiffness variations identified by high frame rate shear wave echocardiography

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2020
Background Shear waves are generated by the closure of the heart valves. Significant differences in shear wave velocity have been found recently between normal myocardium and disease models of diffusely increased muscle stiffness.

Severe and Apparently Irreversible Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in a Patient with Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect – A Successful Case of Treat and Close Strategy

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Irreversible pulmonary arterial hypertension is considered a contraindication for surgical or percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects (ASD) due to risk of right heart failure.
