On echocardiography, right ventricular dilatation and paradoxical septal motion are commonly seen, but ventricular function is usually normal (5).
However, it is important to note that septal contraction is a late systolic event while SAM and mitral septal contact in severe obstruction occurs early in systole; thus, paradoxical septal motion cannot be the means by which pacing works (10, 13, 16).
