Percutaneous balloon valvotomy in tricuspid stenosis.
This report describes the first successful treatment of tricuspid stenosis by percutaneous double balloon valvotomy. There was a dramatic reduction of the tricuspid valve gradient, with an increase in calculated valve area, together with an increase in resting cardiac output and symptomatic relief. The feasibility of the non-surgical treatment of severe tricuspid stenosis was demonstrated unequ...
متن کاملSevere tricuspid stenosis revealed after aortic valvotomy.
Surgical treatment of a rheumatic valvular lesion may exaggerate the physical signs or lead to the recognition for the first time of another valvular lesion. This is seen in combined lesions of the aortic and mitral valves and less frequently of the mitral and tricuspid valve. Tricuspid stenosis (Pantridge and Marshall, 1957) and tricuspid incompetence (Mounsey, 1959) have been revealed after m...
متن کاملTraumatic damage to the mitral valve during percutaneous balloon valvotomy for critical aortic stenosis.
Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty is now a widely accepted alternative to surgical valvotomy for patients with congenital aortic valve stenosis. Mitral valve anomalies are well known to coexist and influence the prognosis from all palliative procedures. Two cases of mitral valve injury occurring during balloon aortic valvuloplasty are reported, one an 11 month old boy, the other a 2 day old ba...
متن کاملBalloon Valvuloplasty for Bioprosthetic Tricuspid Valve Stenosis
A 73-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for a scheduled percutaneous transcatheter balloon valvuloplasty of a stenotic tricuspid bioprosthesis. The patient had a history consistent with exertional dyspnea, abdominal distension, and edema of the lower extremities resistant to diuretic treatment over the previous few months. Forty-three years prior, she underwent aortic valve replacement...
متن کاملBalloon valvotomy for severe aortic stenosis in an infant.
Severe valvular aortic stenosis (AS) is one of the congenital heart diseases that may require intervention during infancy(l). Surgical valvotomy (performed under cardiopulmonary bypass) has, until recently, been the only method by which the aortic valve gradients could be reduced. Balloon aortic valvotomy (BAV) has now emerged as an attractive alternative(2,3). Despite the availability of the b...
