ABSTRACT

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is a rare cardiac disease occurring in approximately 0.2% of the population and is usually left ventricular hypertrophy associated with or without mitral regurgitation due to SAM syndrome. Medical treatment, first septal ablation with absolute alcohol or septal left ventricular myectomy is the treatment methods for this disease. We report here the surgical results of a case of obstructive bilateral ventricular hypertrophy associated with a myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending artery. Surgical unroofing on the left anterior descending artery and septal myectomy were performed.

Keywords: Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, SAM, myocardial bridging
