Minimally Invasive Trans-Mitral Septal Myectomy to Treat Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 43-year-old man with symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) was admitted to our hospital with aggravated exertional dyspnea and successfully treated with robotic transmitral septal myectomy. Minimally invasive transmitral septal myectomy may be a feasible surgical option for the treatment of HOCM in selected cases as an alternative to transaortic myectomy.

Evolving Treatment for Patients With Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy.
D ynamic left ventricular outflow obstruction is a major cause of exertional symptoms in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The obstruction is secondary to systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve abutting against a hypertrophied septum, resulting in diastolic dysfunction, myocardial oxygen supply-demand mismatch, reduced forward output, and secondary mitral regurgitation. Medical t...
متن کاملWill the Mitral Clip become the invasive treatment of choice for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy?
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) in classic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is caused by a combination of septal hypertrophy and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve (SAM). Invasive treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is reserved for patients with severe drug refractory symptoms and LVOTO, and has historically aimed to reduce the thickne...

OBJECTIVE Anatomic alterations of the mitral valve such as increased mitral leaflet area, length and laxity, and anterior displacement of the papillary muscles in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy predispose patients to residual systolic anterior motion and persistence of outflow obstruction and mitral regurgitation after septal myectomy. We investigate the long-term results of combined a...
متن کاملInitial results of combined anterior mitral leaflet extension and myectomy in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical and functional results of combined anterior mitral leaflet extension and myectomy in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. BACKGROUND Septal myectomy is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Because of the role...
متن کاملHypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: mechanism of obstruction and response to therapy.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a primary, usually familial, disorder of heart muscle whose primary feature is muscular hypertrophy without recognized cause that encroaches on the ventricular chamber, reducing chamber area and volume. In roughly 25% of cases, there is associated obstruction to left ventricular outflow (hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy [HOCM]). This article details the mec...
