Objective To analyze the changes in myocardial injury markers and cardiac function in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) after Liwen surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of HOCM patients who underwent Liwen surgery at the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Wuhan Asia Heart Hospital from December 2019 to April 2023, mainly including preoperative and postoperative dynamic follow-up laboratory test results and echocardiograms. Results A total of 42 patients were included, with 25 males and 17 females, aged (44.76±17.72) years, and a postoperative follow-up time of (15.02±6.97) months. The myocardial troponin level of the patients decreased from preoperative 0.03 (0.02, 0.06) ng/mL to postoperative 0.02 (0.01, 0.05) ng/mL (P=0.006), and the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide level decreased from preoperative 748.95 (337.40, 1600.75) ng/L to postoperative 367.15 (126.93, 1030.25) ng/L (P<0.001). After surgery, the left atrial diameter of the patients decreased from preoperative (4.18±0.57) cm to postoperative (3.93±0.55) cm (P=0.004), the end-diastolic interventricular septum thickness decreased from preoperative 2.25 (1.90, 2.75) cm to postoperative 1.70 (1.50, 1.90) cm (P<0.001), the left ventricular mass index decreased from preoperative 211.73 (172.28, 261.54) g/m² to postoperative 156.78 (132.34, 191.36) g/m² (P<0.001), the left ventricular weight decreased from preoperative 368.89 (292.34, 477.72) g to postoperative 266.62 (224.57, 326.04) g (P<0.001), the end-diastolic posterior wall thickness of the left ventricle decreased from preoperative 1.30 (1.20, 1.60) cm to postoperative 1.20 (1.18, 1.40) cm (P<0.001), the relative wall thickness decreased from preoperative 0.78 (0.78, 1.02) to postoperative 0.63 (0.56, 0.72) (P<0.001), the end-systolic inner diameter of the left ventricle increased from preoperative (2.91±0.50) cm to postoperative (3.19±0.53) cm (P=0.001), and the end-diastolic inner diameter of the left ventricle increased from preoperative (4.41±0.48) cm to postoperative (4.66±0.52) cm (P=0.005). The left ventricular outflow diameter increased from preoperative (1.28±0.46) cm to postoperative (1.57±0.32) cm (P=0.001), the left ventricular outflow pressure gradient decreased from preoperative 58.50 (40.75, 92.50) mm Hg to postoperative 11.50 (7.75, 20.50) mm Hg (P<0.001), the ejection fraction increased from preoperative 60.00% (56.75%, 65.00%) to postoperative 63.00% (62.00%, 66.00%) (P=0.024), and the degree of systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve leaflets decreased (P＜0.001). Conclusion The cardiac function of patients with HOCM is improved after Liwen surgery, myocardial injury marker levels are decreased, cardiac reverse remodeling occurres, and the surgical outcome is good.
