Baseline ejection fraction was 71% (63%\u201375%). Mean mitral valve area was 1.28 (range, 1.0\u20131.59) cm\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      . Mean mitral valve gradient at rest was 9.5 (range, 7\u201311) mm\u2009Hg. New York Heart Association symptoms were III to IV at baseline. Patients underwent preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement a range between 69 and 154 days after alcohol septal ablation. Procedural time was 384 (337\u2013424) minutes with a fluoroscopic time of 31 (14\u201371) minutes. Radiofrequency ablation time was 132 (100\u2013175) minutes. As anticipated, 3 patients developed complete heart block and underwent pacemaker implantation, whereas 1 had a preexisting pacemaker. One patient developed groin hematoma and heart failure exacerbation. There were no peri-procedural deaths. Preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement resulted in septal end-diastolic wall thickness reduction compared with baseline (28.6%, 30.4%, 30.3%, and 11.1%) and following alcohol septal ablation (23.1%, 12%, 8.5%). Valve replacement in the setting of mitral annular calcification was performed in all patients 89 (range, 38\u201345) days after preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement. Two patients had concomitant laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet to further augment the neo-left ventricular outflow tract. Postprocedure, New York Heart Association symptoms improved to class I (3 patients) and class II (1 patient).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
