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 ...
