The treatment of drug-refractory HOCM concomitant with paroxysmal AF needs both septal reduction and the maintenance of sinus rhythm, which can be accomplished through transcatheter interventions. Moreover, the detailed intra-ventricular haemodynamic assessment in HOCM patients can be explored using the 4D-flow CMR.
