Alcohol Septal Ablation for Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy
Since its original description in 1994, alcohol septal ablation (ASA) has emerged as a minimally invasive modality for treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy compared to surgical myomectomy. This catheter-based intervention relies on the injection of absolute alcohol into the septal perforator to induce a controlled infarction of the hypertrophied septum and consequently abolish t...
متن کاملAlcohol septal ablation for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy remains challenging. Medical therapy, surgical therapy, and pacemaker therapy have been shown to be beneficial in some patients over the years. Alcohol septal ablation is a catheter-based intervention that causes a controlled infarct in the septum leading to a decrease in the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Along with the impressi...
متن کامل[Septal ablation in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy].
Rev Esp Cardiol 2003;56(12):1231 1231 A 62-year-old patient had symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy diagnosed six years ago. Despite medical treatment, dyspnea progressed during follow-up and a two-chamber pacemaker had been implanted one year previously. The reason for the current hospitalization was worsening symptoms (functional class III). The dynamic left ventricular outflo...
متن کاملHypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: alcohol septal ablation
Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) was introduced in 1994 as an alternative to septal myectomy for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and symptoms refractory to medical therapy. This procedure alleviates symptoms by producing a targeted, limited infarction of the upper interventricular septum, resulting in an increase in left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) diameter, a decrease i...
متن کاملOutcome of Alcohol Septal Ablation for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Background—The clinical efficacy of alcohol septal ablation for drug-refractory hypertrophic cardiomyopathy remains unclear. This study examines the outcome of alcohol septal ablation performed at a tertiary hypertrophic cardiomyopathy referral center. Methods and Results—Among 601 patients with severely symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy referred for alcohol septal ablation or...
