This is the concluding webinar to the Guest Editor Series, "Operative Management of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy—Gold Standard Septal Myectomy to Stand the Test of Time" put together by Guest Editor Eduard Quintana. Joined by a number of his contributors, they discuss hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.

This video provides an overview of the prevalence and clinical impact of atrial fibrillation in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) presenting for septal myectomy and describes an approach to surgical management of these patients and the corresponding operative techniques.

This video describes the authors’ surgical technique to treat severe symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy through a median sternotomy. This technique is mainly inspired from the Morrow septal myectomy. The author will highlight the main anatomical landmarks that drive the surgical resection and that must be kept in the surgeon’s mind to allow for a safe and efficient surgical procedure. Finally, the video will discuss when it is advisable to add an edge-to-edge mitral stich during the modified Morrow myectomy and the author’s way of doing so.
