Surgical septal myectomy has been considered the gold - standard therapeutic option for symptomatic drug refractory patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy for over 50 years.

We sought to evaluate early and late outcome of the cumulative surgical experience in managing Egyptian HOCM patients in our center, also to know whether Egyptian patients population has peculiar characteristics or not
