Abstract
Managing a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) presents a significant challenge for any anesthesiologist. A deep understanding of the pathophysiology, alongside meticulous planning and hemodynamic monitoring, is essential. Key considerations include maintaining sinus rhythm, ensuring adequate preload and afterload, and preventing tachycardia. Here, we present a unique case of ileal adenocarcinoma scheduled for resection and anastomosis in a patient with a 40-year history of seizure disorder and a severe left ventricular outflow tract gradient of 110 mm Hg, illustrating how a vigilant and methodical approach can lead to successful outcomes in such complex cases.
