Abstract

Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) has been widely used in relieving the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction caused by hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). There is limited data about the utility of ASA in cases of cardiac amyloidosis with LVOT obstruction. Our patient is 71-year-old male with a history of multiple myeloma complicated by cardiac amyloidosis and end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis who presented from the dialysis center due to hypotension. The patient was admitted to our hospital for further workup. He underwent echocardiography that showed severely elevated LVOT gradient pressures and the decision was made to proceed with ASA, which led to significant improvement in the LVOT gradient pressures and the patient being able to tolerate his dialysis sessions.
