Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to assess the role of mitral valve apparatus in the development of outflow tract obstruction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and to identify the best surgical treatment modality to relieve outflow tract obstruction in such patients

Detailed Description

It is well-known that mitral valve plays an important role in the development of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In order to further investigate this phenomenon, the following study aims to compare mitral valve geometry indices, as assessed by transthoracic echocardiography, two- and three-dimentional transesophageal echocardiography and mitral valve quantification analysis, and papillary musles' function, as assessed by 2D speckle tracking imaging, in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, patients with arterial hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy and people without structural heart disease. This will provide information on the geometric characteristics of mitral valve that predispose to the development of obstruction. Futhermore, patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy that are eligible for the surgical relief of obstruction will be randomised into four groups according to the modality of intervention. These groups are as follows: 1) isolated extended septal myectomy; 2) extended septal myectomy + edge to edge mitral valve repair; 3) extended septal myectomy + posterior lealfet sliding plasty; 4) extended septal myectomy + secondary chordae transection. After surgery, said indices will be reassessed and the degree of outflow tract obstruction relief noted, in order to elicit which geometrical changes are produced by each type of intervention. Patients will be followed long-term, up to 5 years, in order to define whether the addition of the intervention on mitral valve helps abolish the residual gradient more effectively, and whether it translates into any survival benefit.
