Role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in planning ventricular septal myomectomy in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM).
Journal of Cardiac Surgery 2022 December
Septal myectomy is currently the gold standard treatment for symptomatic patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). The procedure needs to be tailored and performed in a personalized fashion, taking into consideration the anatomic and physiologic heterogeneity of this disease. The extent and location of surgical myectomy will depend on the location of the hypertrophy, with the goal of widening the outflow tract and improve the function of the mitral valve. CMR helps to identify hypertrophy not well visualized by TTE, providing more accurate wall thickness measurements and differentiating HOCM from other causes of LV hypertrophy. CMR also helps identify an abnormal attachment of papillary muscle to the MV or to the septal myocardium and mitral valve pathology. A collaborative approach with cardiac surgeons, radiologists and cardiologists will optimize preoperative planning to improve the success for surgical myectomy.
