TI  - [Mitral valve replacement for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with 
      repeated heart failure; report of a case].
PG  - 242-4
AB  - A 62-year-old woman with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy suffered from 
      repeated heart failure. Preoperative echocardiogrphy demonstrated pressure 
      gradient (PG) of 64 mmHg in left ventricular cavity, mitral regurgitation II, and 
      tricuspid regurgitation II with an ejection fraction of 74%. Cardiac 
      catheterizaition revealed cardiac index of 1.50 l/min/m2. She was recommended 
      mitral valve replacement (MVR) because she was hospitalized several times for 
      heart failure. She underwent MVR, tricuspid annuloplasty, and modified maze 
      operation. Postoperative PG fell till 15 mmHg in echocardiogrphy. Postoperative 
      cardiac catheterization revealed cardiac index of 2.00 l/min/m2. MVR contributed 
      to decrease of PG in intraventricular cavity and increase of cardiac output. 
      Postoperative cardiac status was classified as New York Heart Association (NYHA) 
      class I-II.
