Pulmonary oedema in two parturients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM).
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) presented for delivery. The first had a repeat Caesarean section with general anaesthesia and the second gave birth vaginally with epidural analgesia. Both patients developed pulmonary oedema in the peripartum period. These cases highlight the delicate fluid requirements of the pregnant patient with HOCM. The fluid management of the parturient is discussed with particular emphasis on the pathophysiology of HOCM. The indications for invasive monitoring are presented.

Minimally Invasive Trans-Mitral Septal Myectomy to Treat Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy
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.
متن کاملCardiogenic shock in a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy after insertion of a pacemaker.
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is an obstructive subvariety of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the left ventricular wall of the heart is abnormally thick, and the left ventricular cavity is small. HOCM is characterized by an excessively thick interventricular septum, which obstructs left ventricular outflow during ventricular systole. Pericardial tam...
متن کاملDelayed untwisting: the mechanistic link between dynamic obstruction and exercise tolerance in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the mechanisms linking dynamic obstruction and exercise tolerance in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). BACKGROUND Patients with HOCM have reduced exercise tolerance. However, the association between dynamic obstruction and peak oxygen consumption (VO2max) is weak. METHODS We enrolled 25 patients with HOCM, 20 with hypertrophic ca...

1. The aim of this study was to elucidate the pathophysiological role of adrenomedullin and the relation between adrenomedullin and other hormones in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. 2. Fourteen patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), 26 patients with hypertrophic non-obstructive cardiomyopathy (HNCM) and 14 normal control subjects participated in this study. Rad...
متن کاملLV outflow tract area in discrete subaortic stenosis and hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: a real-time 3-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography study.
PRECISE ANATOMICAL ANALYSIS OF STENOTIC LESIONS OF THE LEFT VENTRICULAR outflow tract (LVOT) in discrete subaortic membranous stenosis (DSS) and hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is challenging due to their complex nature (1,2). In the present study, we clarified the difference of the geometry and dynamic change of LVOT area using en face views of the LVOT in 6 patients with DSS an...
