Fig 1 (Left) Transesophageal echocardiography revealed midventricular obstruction. (Right) Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography revealed an intra–left ventricular septum located in the midportion of the left ventricle, with a small hole (white arrows) at its center (yellow arrows: mitral valve).

Fig 2 (Left and right) Intraoperative photography revealed that the intra–left ventricular septum had a small hole (white arrows) at the center, through which a 21-mm surgical probe could not pass (yellow arrows: mitral annulus).

Fig 3 (Left) Radical resection of the papillary muscles and the intra–left ventricular septum (white arrows) relieved the obstruction. (Right) A 26-mm surgical probe passed through the midportion of the left ventricle (yellow arrows: mitral annulus).
