Robotic Transmitral Approach for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy With Systolic Anterior Motion
Surgical intervention is indicated in symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients with a ventricular outflow pressure gradient more than 50 mmHg. The transmitral approach, along with the transapical and transaortic approaches, is routinely used for myectomy, but all are open procedures.

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. However, we have recently identified,

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Decreasing incidence of systolic anterior motion after mitral valve reconstruction.
BACKGROUND: With the widespread application of mitral valve reconstructive techniques, systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the anterior mitral leaflet causing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction has been recognized by several groups. SAM occurred in

The Disappearing Murmur: Systolic Anterior Motion of the Mitral Valve Leaflet in a Non-hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patient [PDF]
Systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve is a well-known phenomenon associated with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and hemodynamic compromise. This finding may occur in patients with or without hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Assessment of right ventricular function in patients with anterior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention by speckle-tracking imaging study [PDF]
Background: Anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) occurs when a major coronary artery becomes blocked. Because of this, the left ventricle, the heart's primary pumping chamber, suffers serious damage.

Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.

Abstract Background Intraoperative haemorrhage during equine anaesthesia is a rare but potentially fatal complication requiring prompt haemodynamic support. Postural manoeuvres such as Trendelenburg (TL) positioning and vasopressor support augment venous return and improve cardiac output (CO), yet their efficacy in anaesthetised hypovolemic horses ...
