RFCA of the hypertrophied septum causes sustained reduction in the LVOT gradient and symptomatic improvement among patients with HOCM. Electroanatomical mapping helps to perform the procedure safely.
Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm (SVA) is a cardiac anomaly due to the defective connective tissue at the aortic root. It is usually congenital and sometimes acquired. They can remain asymptomatic and be detected incidentally or can manifest with heart failure and its sequelae when ruptured. We report a case of Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm dissecting into the interventricular septum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
