Efficacy and Safety of Thoracoscopic Morrow Surgery in the Treatment of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

This single-center, prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled clinical trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the Thoracoscopic Morrow procedure in the treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. The primary objectives include investigating: Question 1: The efficacy and safety of two surgical modalities in patients presenting with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and mid-left ventricular hypertrophy. Question 2: The impact of the two surgical procedures on hemodynamics in patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, mid-left ventricular obstruction, and in individuals with or without organic valvular lesions. Question 3: The effects of the two surgical procedures on exercise capacity, quality of life, and long-term prognosis among patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and central left ventricular obstruction, both with and without valvular lesions. Participants will be stratified into two groups. The experimental group will undergo thoracoscopic Morrow surgery, while the control group will undergo median open modified enlarged Morrow surgery.
