Concomitant idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis and disseminated myocardial bridging is an uncommon clinical entity with poor prognosis. We describe a symptomatic 19-year-old girl who had myocardial debridging and transaortic and transmitral extended septal myectomy in the same surgical session. An early and simultaneous surgical approach may prevent sudden cardiac death in these high-risk patients.

Background: Anomalous papillary muscle (APM) insertion into the mitral valve leaflet is rare but clinically important in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). In this study, we report the detection rate of APM insertion into the mitral valve using preoperative imaging modalities and the surgical outcomes of the patients.
Methods: By retrospectively reviewing the clinical records of patients with HOCM who underwent surgical treatment by a single operation group at our center from January 2020 to June 2023, patients with APM insertion into the mitral valve leaflet were identified.

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart in which the patient develops left ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to the interaction of the mitral valve and the intraventricular septum. Although septal myectomy remains the gold standard treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, several other approaches have been described in the literature, such as a transaortic, transapical or transmitral approach via a sternotomy. All of these approaches have been shown to produce reliable reduction in left ventricular outflow tract gradients.

We present a 71-year-old patient with severely obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, moderate mitral regurgitation for systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve, moderate aortic stenosis and regurgitation and atrial fibrillation. We performed a mitroaortic valve replacement, transmitral and transaortic septal myectomy and left atrial appendage closure through a minimally invasive approach (right anterolateral minithoracotomy).

Objectives: Transaortic myectomy is a common procedure for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Thoracoscopic trans-mitral myectomy has been described in a few small-sample studies and has been recommended as preferable. We herein report our clinical outcomes using the thoracoscopic trans-mitral approach with 76 patients.
