Conduction abnormalities post alcohol septal ablation for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy – A single center experience
Conduction abnormalities are commonly noted after alcohol septal ablation (ASA). This was a retrospective, observational study where we studied the incidence of new onset conduction abnormalities post ASA. 23 patients, who underwent ASA over a period of 5 years, were included in the study.

| Sumario: | Conduction abnormalities are commonly noted after alcohol septal ablation (ASA). This was a retrospective, observational study where we studied the incidence of new onset conduction abnormalities post ASA. 23 patients, who underwent ASA over a period of 5 years, were included in the study. Baseline conduction abnormalities were noted in 26% patients (n = 6). Transient complete heart block (CHB) was noted in 21.7% (n = 5) whereas new onset right bundle branch block (RBBB) was seen in 60.8% (n = 14). Left bundle branch block was uncommon (4.3%,n = 1). Permanent pacemaker implantation was done in 4.3% (n = 1) for CHB. Conduction anomalies are frequent after ASA with RBBB being most common. |
