Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation in Patients With Drug-Refractory Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

Abstract

This study found that PIMSRA in patients with drug-refractory HOCM may be an effective procedure for relief of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and symptoms with acceptable complication rates. These results are encouraging and support the design of a randomized clinical trial against well-established septal reduction therapies.
