title: [Long term results of surgical treatment of obstructive myocardiopathy by intervention on the interventricular septum].
abstract: An analysis of the results of septal myotomy or myectomy in 26 adults with obstructive cardiomyopathy (OCM) with a mean follow-up period of more than 5 years lead to the conclusion that this treatment brings about, at the price of a mortality rate of about 10%, a sustained improvement in function, a reliable correction of the left ventricular gradient, and an improved long term survival rate by comparison with the rate among patients treated medically.
