Systolic Compression of Epicardial Coronary and Intramural Arteries: in Children with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
AUTOR(ES)

RESUMO
It has been suggested that systolic compression of epicardial coronary arteries is an important cause of myocardial ischemia and sudden death in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We examined the associations between sudden death, systolic coronary compression of intra- and epicardial arteries, myocardial perfusion abnormalities, and severity of hypertrophy in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
