With the heart in cardioplegic arrest, harvested arteries and veins are used to connect across problematic regions—a construction known as surgical anastomosis.

   The open-heart surgery entails removing a portion of the septum that is obstructing the flow of blood from the left ventricle to the aorta. [2] The most common alternatives to septal myectomies are treatment with medication (usually beta or calcium blockers) or non-surgical thinning of tissue with alcohol ablation. Ordinarily, septal myectomies ...

   [6] [7] It is performed without surgery, by using radiofrequency catheter ablation with one-day hospital. [citation needed] The results up to 100 months follow-up are showing better outcome than clinical measures or pacemaker implantation with changing the tilt-test on to normal and by absence of syncope in more than 90% of patients without ...
