Regression of Systolic Anterior Motion in Progressive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Systolic anterior motion (SAM) is the dynamic anteriorly directed movement of the anterior mitral valve leaflet during systole toward the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). The history of SAM in progressive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is unclear.

Background Systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve associated with acute type A aortic dissection is rare in daily clinical practice. The prevention of systolic anterior motion is important, because once it occurs, the hemodynamics may become ...

Systolic anterior motion due to morphology changes in constrictive pericarditis. [PDF]
Abstract Systolic anterior motion (SAM) can be caused by multifactorial mechanisms, including structural, morphological and functional factors. We report an unusual case of a 76-year-old woman presenting with SAM associated with constrictive pericarditis.

Post-operative systolic anterior motion associated with mitral regurgitation can be a challenging combination. We present the case of a 64-year-old male patient managed by MitraClip (Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, Illinois) implantation for systolic ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: in a search of its own identity
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disorder characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy not explained by secondary causes, and a non-dilated left ventricle with preserved or increased ejection fraction. It is commonly asymmetric with most

Dynamic obstruction to left ventricular outflow in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy usually occurs when the anterior mitral leaflet moves forward in systole and approaches or contacts the ventricular septum.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Left ventricular outflow obstruction (LVOTO) and diastolic dysfunction are the main pathophysiological characteristics of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)LVOTO, may be identified in more than half of HCM patients and represents an important determinant ...

Modern management of systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve [PDF]
Systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve (MV) can be a life-threatening condition. The SAM can result in severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and/or mitral regurgitation and is associated with an up to 20% risk of sudden death (which is substantially lower in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)).
