The genetic background of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) treated with alcohol septal ablation (ASA) and its relationship to the outcomes are not known. We aimed to investigate whether the outcome of genotype positive (G+) patients differs from genotype negative (G-) patients treated with ASA.
