Pattern and degree of left ventricular remodeling following a tailored surgical approach for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
Background The role of a tailored surgical approach for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on regional ventricular remodelling remains unknown. The aims of this study were to evaluate the pattern, extent and functional impact of regional ventricular remodelling after a tailored surgical approach. Methods From 2005 to 2008, 44 patients with obstructive HCM underwent tailored surgical intervention...
متن کاملEarly onset and progression of left ventricular remodeling after alcohol septal ablation in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) reduces left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) pressure gradient in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), which leads to left ventricular remodeling. We sought to describe the early to midterm changes and modulating factors of the remodeling process using cardiac MRI (CMR). METHODS AND RESULTS CMR was performed at baseline and 1 ...
متن کاملBiventricular / Left Ventricular Pacing in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy: An Overview
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant inherited genetic disease characterized by compensatory pathological left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy due to sarcomere dysfunction. In an important proportion of patients with HCM, the site and extent of cardiac hypertrophy results in severe obstruction to LV outflow tract (LVOT), contributing to disabling symptoms and increasing the ris...
متن کاملSurgical 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 کاملProgressive left ventricular remodeling in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and severe left ventricular hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the natural history of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and severe left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (i.e., maximal left ventricular wall thickness [MLVWT] >/=30 mm) and whether changes in cardiac morphology influence the course of the disease. BACKGROUND Severe LVH is common in young and rare among elderly patients with HCM. T...
