DYNAMIC LEFT VENTRICULAR MMID-CAVITARY OBSTRUCTION COMPLICATING ANTEROSEPTAL MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Abstract

Dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) and mid-cavitary obstruction has been ‎associated with hypertrophic obstructive cardiornyopathy. . Acute LVOT and mid - ‎cavitaryobstruction has been described as a complication of myocardial infarction ‎‎(MI). In the latter situation, this unusual form of dynamic obstruction occurs as a ‎result of compensated hyperdynamic basal wall motion in patients with apical ‎infarction. We describe a patient who developed mid-cavitary obstruction following ‎silent anteroseptal MI.
