Abstract Background: Modified Morrow procedure is the gold standard of surgical intervention for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). However, there are certain cases without clear exposure through the traditional trans-aortic approach; we therefore described a trans-mitral approach by enlarging left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) using an autologous pericardial patch for the anterior mitral valve leaflet and septal myectomy. We aimed to retrospectively analyze this series of patients to reveal its safety and efficiency.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 16 HOCM patients underwent enlargement of LVOT using an autologous pericardial patch for the anterior mitral valve leaflet and septal myectomy through trans-mitral approach in our center from January, 2016 to December, 2019. Baseline characteristics, operative details and postoperative data were extracted from our hospital medical records. Results: Of the 16 patients, there was no operative mortality. No new onset atrial fibrillation, no new onset stroke with symptoms, no permanent pacemaker implantation and no ventricular septal defects formation were observed during operation and three months follow-up. The peak pressure gradient of LVOT decreased from 97.56±23.81 mmHg to 7.56±2.13 mmHg (P < 0.01) after operation and 10.19±2.93 mmHg (P < 0.01) three months after operation. The average aortic cross-clamp time was 54.56±6.10 mins (range, 48 to 69 minutes). The systolic anterior motion (SAM) sign disappeared uneventfully in all cases. No patients had more than moderate MR.Conclusions: Enlargement of LVOT using an autologous pericardial patch for the anterior mitral valve leaflet and septal myectomy through trans-mitral approach is feasible and reliable for the treatment of certain types of HOCM cases.Trial registration: Not applicable.

Enlargement of left ventricular outflow tract using an autologous pericardial patch for the anterior mitral valve leaflet and septal myectomy through trans-mitral approach for the hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy Zhang et al (1) describe their experience in septal myectomy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Of 247 consecutive cases with HOCM treated during 2016-2019 with a variety of techniques, this report is on 16 patients who underwent trans-mitral septal myectomy and enlargement of left ventricular outflow with an autologous pericardial patch in transverse configuration. The technique reportedly decreased the gradient from average 90+ to 10+ mm Hg and resolved systolic anterior leaflet motion in all with only mild residual mitral regurgitation. There were no deaths or any other major complications in this group. It is a small group of patients with excellent result but no definitive conclusion can be drawn regarding validity of the technique from this study. The controversy remains regarding the approach, trans-aortic vs. trans-mitral and whether leaflets should be left alone, plicated or lengthened as well as whether mitral valve should be repaired or replaced in addition to septal myectomy. One certainty remains, extended myectomy done either way, is the foundation of the surgical treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is the most common inherited cardiomyopathy. Septal myectomy is a low-risk operation and remains the first septal reduction therapeutic option. We present a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy requiring extended septal myectomy and concomitant left ventricular outflow tract intervention. In addition to septal reduction therapy, this patient also underwent anterior mitral valve plication, trigonal release, and secondary chordal division to relieve the obstruction. A tailored approach to hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with a comprehensive left ventricular outflow tract intervention is necessary to ensure the best hemodynamic outcome. Preoperative heart failure and recurrent syncope fully resolved after this intervention.

Aim. Surgical septal myectomy is a standard treatment option for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Subvalvular abnormalities of the mitral valve may play an important role in residual left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. This study aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes of septal myectomy with subvalvular interventions.Material and Methods. Between July, 2015 and December, 2016, 40 eligible patients underwent septal myectomy with subvalvular intervention. The peak gradient was 92.3±16.9 mm Hg. The mean septum thickness was 26.8±4.5 mm. Moderate or severe systolic anterior motion syndrome-mediated mitral regurgitation was observed in all patients.Results. There was no residual mitral regurgitation. Residual systolic anterior motion syndrome was observed in 5%. The postoperative gradient was 8.7±4.5 mm Hg. At 12-month follow-up, all patients were alive. According to the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, 87.5 and 12.5% of patients had NYHA functional classes I and II, respectively. The prevalence rate of residual mitral regurgitation was 10%.Conclusions. Concomitant subvalvular intervention during septal myectomy effectively eliminated left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and provided high freedom from residual mitral regurgitation one year after surgery.
