We report the case of a 70-year-old woman with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, who was admitted because of severe heart failure and cardiogenic shock and mechanical support requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. She recovered well by percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation under the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support and was discharged without complications. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
