Abstract

Systolic anterior motion of a mitral leaflet can occur by various mechanisms and it is one of the causes of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction after transcatheter mitral valve replacement. We present a case of systolic anterior motion that resolved spontaneously as the anterior mitral leaflet adhered to the prosthesis. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Keywords: left ventricular outflow tract obstruction; systolic anterior motion; transcatheter mitral valve replacement.
