Surgical management of left ventricular outflow obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the single most common form of inherited heart disease. Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) is a recognised feature of this condition which arises when blood leaving the outflow tract is impeded by systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve. In an important minority of patients, breathlessness, chest pain and syncope may result and persist despite...
متن کاملLeft ventricular outflow obstruction induced by tamponade in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Echocardiographic abnormalities of valvular movement described in patients with pericardial effusions have included systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve. Published illustrations have shown, however, "pseudo-SAM" rather than true SAM. We report a patient with asymmetric septal hypertrophy whose echocardiogram during tamponade showed true SAM, which was no longer apparent and could ...
متن کاملEvaluation of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with 4D phase contrast in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Background Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) develop left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction due to combination of asymmetric septal hypertrophy and systolic anterior motion of the mitral leaflet. Degree of LVOT obstruction is an important predictor in patient symptoms and clinical outcome. LVOT obstruction is currently assessed by Doppler echocardiography (echo) using p...
متن کاملDevelopment and determinants of dynamic obstruction to left ventricular outflow in young patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND To study the development of dynamic subaortic obstruction in young patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), serial echocardiograms were retrospectively analyzed in a group of 26 consecutive children with this disease who showed no evidence of dynamic outflow obstruction at their initial evaluation (age, 11 +/- 3 years). METHODS AND RESULTS After a follow-up of 3-12 years (m...
متن کاملLeft ventricular outflow tract obstruction and sudden death risk in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
AIMS Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) is associated with reduced survival in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The influence of LVOTO on survival from SD in relation to other recognized clinical risk markers is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 917 patients with HCM (554 males, 43+/-15 years) were studied; 288 (31.4%) had LVOTO at rest (> or =30 mmHg). D...
