Background Patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction who do not exhibit a dynamic pressure gradient at rest, experience pressure gradient increases of ≥ 30 mmHg only during specific situations; this is called latent left ventricular ...

IntroductionTranscatheter mitral valve replacement is a promising alternative to open-heart surgery in elderly patients. Patients with severe mitral annulus calcification (MAC) are a particularly high-risk population, where postprocedural complications ...

On the Cardiac Loop and Its Failing: Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction
V iewed dispassionately, the cardiac loop seems an unconventional, even an odd, evolutionary adaptation. The ventricular U-turn loop, which occurs in all reptiles, mammals, and birds, forces blood to travel back on itself with a 180° turn between the ...

Cardiac rhabdomyomas are typically presented in the tuberous sclerosis. Although benign and often associated with spontaneous regression, in rare circumstances huge mass size and critical location can lead to heart failure, ventricular outflow tract ...

Background Apical ballooning syndrome (or Takotsubo cardiomyopathy) is a syndrome of transient left ventricular apical ballooning. Although first described in Japanese patients, it is now well reported in the Caucasian population. The syndrome mimicks an

Transient dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Dynamic left ventricular outflow (LVOT) obstruction has been classically described in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The hypertrophy of the basal septum and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve leaflet (SAM) cause dynamic LVOT ...

Impact of VA-ECMO on Dynamic LV Outflow Obstruction After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
Dynamic left ventricular outflow obstruction is a rare but severe complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement. It presents as a paradoxical hemodynamic collapse after relieving the left ventricular afterload.
