[Surgical approaches to interventricular septum in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy].

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a hereditary myocardial disease characterized by ventricular wall and interventricular septum thickening not associated with heart valve disease or any other external cause. Considering different localization of left ventricular obstruction, surgeons should be aware of various surgical approaches to various segments of interventricular septum. A personalized approach to each patient is essential to achieve favorable postoperative effect with minimal incidence of complications. This review is devoted to various surgical approaches to interventricular septum for different phenotypic variants of HCM.
