- Abstract
In the era of 1950s and 60s, the mysterious entity of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) ignited the minds of young physicians and surgeons to understand the pathophysiology of the disease. Although legends like Sir Russel Brock have contributed to the understanding of the pathophysiology and surgical techniques to obstructive HCM1, Dr. Andrew Glenn Morrow played a phenomenal role on his own, in understanding the pathophysiology, its effect on animal models, the provocative tests, angiographic studies, surgical techniques, and long-term results, along with his cardiology colleagues, Dr. Eugene Braunwald and Dr. Edwin C. Brockenbrough from National Heart Institute in Bethesda, Maryland. This trio has published countless research papers on Obstructive HCM.
