Abstract
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is currently treated with septal reduction therapy in severely symptomatic patients who are not responsive to medical treatment. Since its introduction by Dr Ulrich Sigwart in 1995, alcohol septal ablation (ASA) has been increasingly performed across the globe. In fact, after discussion of risks, benefits and alternatives, many patients elect to undergo ASA.
