Percutaneous mitral valvotomy in rheumatic mitral stenosis: a new approach.
Three patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis were treated with percutaneous mitral valvotomy. A Brockenbrough catheter was advanced transseptally into the left atrium and then into the left ventricle over a long guide wire. An angle wire loop retriever was advanced through a 10 Fr straight catheter via the femoral artery into the left ventricle. The retriever was used to catch the flexible end...

متن کاملPercutaneous Mitral Valvotomy in a Case of Situs Inversus Totalis and Juvenile Rheumatic Critical Mitral Stenosis: Case Report
Situs inversus totalis is a rare congenital disorder where the heart being a mirror image is situated on the right side of the body. Distorted cardiac anatomy makes fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous mitral valvotomy (PMV) technically challenging and there are only few reports of PMV in situs inversus totalis. Here we report a case where PMV was successfully done for situs inversus totalis with ra...
متن کاملValvotomy in calcific mitral stenosis.
The results of transventricular mitral valvotomy in 50 cases of heavily calcified mitral stenosis are presented. The mortality and quality of results in patients undergoing a first valvotomy were more satisfactory than in patients undergoing a second operation. Associated mitral incompetence has an adverse effect on the results, particularly after a second operation. As a result, it is suggeste...
