Abstrakt: | Background and Objective: The prevalence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is estimated to be 1 in 200 to 500 individuals, with systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve (MV) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction present in 60% to 70%. In this narrative review, we aim to elucidate the pathophysiology of SAM-septal contact and LVOT obstruction in HCM by presenting a detailed review on the anatomy of the MV apparatus in HCM, examining the various existing theories pertaining to the SAM phenomenon as supported by cardiac imaging, and providing a critical assessment of management strategies for SAM in HCM. Methods: A literature review was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid, and the Cochrane Library, of all scientific articles published through December 2021. A focus was placed on descriptive studies, reports correlating echocardiographic findings with pathologic diagnosis, and outcomes studies. Key Content and Findings: The pathophysiology of SAM involves the complex interplay between HCM morphology, MV apparatus anatomic abnormalities, and labile hemodynamic derangements. Echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) vector flow mapping have identified drag forces, as opposed to the "Venturi effect", as the main hydraulic forces responsible for SAM. The degree of mitral regurgitation with SAM is variable, and its severity is correlated with degree of LVOT obstruction and outcomes. First line therapy for the amelioration of SAM and LVOT obstruction is medical therapy with beta-blockers, non-dihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers, and disopyramide, in conjunction with lifestyle modifications. In refractory cases septal reduction therapy is performed, which may be combined with a 'resect-plicate-release' procedure, anterior mitral leaflet extension, surgical edge-to-edge MV repair, anterior mitral leaflet retention plasty, or secondary chordal cutting. Conclusions: Recent scientific advances in the field of HCM have allowed for a maturation of our understanding of the SAM phenomenon. Cardiac imaging plays a critical role in its diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance, and in our ability to apply the appropriate therapeutic regimens. The increasing prevalence of HCM places an emphasis on continued basic and clinical research to further improve outcomes for this challenging population.
