A 65-year-old man complained chest oppression at rest and dizziness. Echocardiography showed subaortic stenosis with outflow gradient of 100 mmHg, although interventricular septal thickness was only 12 mm and left ventricular posterior wall thickness was 11 mm, and mild mitral regurgitation. Selective coronary angiography demonstrated 90% stenosis in left main truncus, 50% stenosis in first diagonal branch, and hypoplastic right coronary artery. Emergent coronary artery revasculization concomitant with left ventricular myotomy myectomy was performed. Immediately after weaning off the cardiopulmonary pump, IABP was employed for cardiac assistance, because of residual left ventricular outflow pressure gradient, which was provoked by cathecholamine and amyl nitrite. He was discharged in 1 month in NYHA class I. Echocardiography 3 months after operation showed no residual outflow pressure gradient, no systolic anterior motion of mitral anterior leaflet, and mild approximately mitral regurgitation. Careful operative management, including myocardial protection and avoiding perforation of ventricular septum and postoperative medical care are mandatory to this group of patients. This case is the first successful coronary artery bypass grafting and concomitant left ventricular myotomy-myectomy reported in Japan.
