Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation by alcohol-induced septal branch occlusion is a new treatment option in symptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and subaortic, SAM-associated obstruction. We report on a patient with mid-ventricular obstruction and echocardiographic-guided reduction of septal hypertrophy.
