In the SFHI (State Funded Healthcare Institution) Republic’s Centre for Cardiology the method of alcohol septal ablation has been introduced in 2015. The paper presents one case of a successful treatment of a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction treated with the use of the method of alcohol septal ablation under control of contrast enhanced echocardiography of the ablation area in the interventricular septum.

The authors describe a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with concomitant left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and aortic stenosis. Detailed haemodynamic assessment of the serial lesions was performed. Alcohol septal ablation resulted in a significant reduction of gradients across the left ventricular outflow tract.

Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can result in considerable symptoms. While pharmacological therapies are the first-line treatment for most patients, there are invasive therapies that have shown excellent success in relieving these drug-refractory symptoms. Surgical septal myectomy and percutaneous alcohol septal ablation, each with relative merits and risks, offer high success rates when performed in the context of specialized hypertrophic cardiomyopathy programmes.
