About this study
The purpose of this study is to summarize the clinical, morphological, and pathological features of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and end systolic cavity obliteration, to describe the surgical technique of enlarging the left ventricular (LV) cavity through the transapical approach to myectomy, to compare patients’ hemodynamic alterations before and after transapical septal myectomy, to assess patients’ functional recovery after apical myectomy, and to evaluate the survival rate of these targeted surgical patients.
