This article contains a detailed literary review of surgical correction options for one of the most common forms of primary cardiomyopathies – hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Surgical treatment of obstructive forms of this disease continues to represent a significant medical and social problem. Surgical methods are more and more actively used by practitioners, but often a decision making before the intervention is controversial. The wide using of many various invasive treatment methods today of not a new kind of disease, suggests that in this area of cardiac surgery there is still a place for a further scientific research in aim to improve treatment outcomes. Selection of the optimal surgical strategy and tactics still remains a matter for debate. The aim of this review is the systematization and comparative analysis of the most significant studies, dedicated to usage of basic surgical procedures and alternative non-conservative interventions in treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. The advantages and disadvantages of various methods are described. Close attention is paid to the comparative effectiveness of septal myectomy and transcatheter septal ablation, as well as on the controversial role of the mitral prosthesis in correction of this pathology.
