| Popis: |
Approximately 2/3 of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have significant left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO), which is caused by the interaction mitral valve apparatus and the hypertrophied septum. The contribution of mitral valve remodeling to the development of obstruction over time has never been described. We analyzed retrospectively 40 patients with HCM and no baseline obstruction followed up for a median of 2179 days. At follow up, 13 patients developed significant LVOTO. Patients who developed LVOTO had longer posterior leaflets and longer anterior leaflet residual length. |
