Closed mitral valvotomy.
The results of closed mitral valvotomy operations in 359 patients operated on from August 1957 to October 1974 were assessed at July 1975. About 60% of the patients were in good health. These results suggest that there is still a place for closed mitral valvotomy in carefully selected cases.

Prophylactic anticoagulant treatment prior to mitral valvotomy was first recommended by Storm and Hansen (1955).

But this dreaded complication was entirely abolished only in Storm and Hansen's series and in the first series reported by Miscall et al. (1962). In al...
متن کاملMitral valvotomy and embolism.
We have studied the case records of 468 patients who underwent mitral valvotomy, 363 female and 105 male, to discover the incidence and site of systemic embolism before, at, and after operation, and the relation of embolism to cardiac rhythm and to the presence of clot in the left atrium at operation. Two hundred and seventy-two patients were operated upon in the Southampton Chest Hospital by t...
