Intracardiac echocardiography--guided percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty.
Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) was initially described by Inoue in 1984 as a novel percutaneous technique for the management of mitral stenosis. Intracardiac echocardiography was initially used in the 1980s but was not universally accepted due to its high-frequency transducers and problems with steerability and manipulation. In the 1990s technical improvements led to more gene...
متن کاملTransesophageal echocardiography-guided cardioversion after cardiac operations.
BACKGROUND Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is often performed during cardiac operations. The need to repeat TEE to exclude left atrial or left atrial appendage thrombus before direct current cardioversion (DCCV) in patients with a recent intraoperative TEE showing no thrombus is unclear. We sought to determine the incidence of and risk factors for new thrombus in patients undergoing TEE-...
متن کاملquadricuspid aortic valve diagnosed by transesophageal echocardiography: a case report
quadricuspid aortic valve (qav) is an uncommon congenital anomaly which was an incidental finding during surgery or autopsy in the past. we present the case of a 44-year-old woman with moderately severe aortic regurgitation due to unequal cusp size qav diagnosed via transesophageal echocardiography. due to echocardiographic imaging improvement, the diagnosis of qav is now easier and earlier tha...
متن کامل[Percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty guided by three-dimensional echocardiography].
122 A 52-year-old patient with a history of rheumatic mitral stenosis was followed periodically at the cardiac outpatient clinic for dyspnea that eventually progressed to dyspnea on minimal exertion. The mitral valve had a score of 8 on echocardiography, basically because of valve thickening and diminished mobility, with minimal calcification. The anatomy of the valve permitted treatment with p...
متن کاملEconomic implications of transesophageal echocardiography-guided cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.
schemic stroke is the most feared complication of atrial brillation, and many studies have investigated strategies to educe cerebral embolism. Anticoagulation with warfarin is emarkably effective in reducing the risk of ischemic stroke mong patients with chronic atrial fibrillation (1) and has ecome standard therapy. More recently, four randomized rials (2–5) have shown that a strategy of aggre...
