Description
Meilynn Shi and co-authors present an older man whose heart outflow is blocked twice over, by two ills at once. One ill thickens the heart wall and chokes the outflow path from inside. The next narrows the main valve. Care in their 2024 case trims the thick wall first, with a septal reduction step. That order clears the inner choke pre any valve swap, since a new valve could worsen the inner block. The case casts step order as the key call when valve disease and wall disease meet.
