Mitral annular calcification predicts immediate results of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy
BACKGROUND Many previous studies have evaluated the impact of mitral valve (MV) deformity scores on the percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) outcome in patients with mitral stenosis; however, the relationship between mitral annulus calcification (MAC) and the PTMC result has not yet been established. The current study aimed to investigate whether MAC could independently influen...
متن کاملPercutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy in mitral restenosis with situs inversus.
A woman, aged 30 years with situs inversus, dextrocardia and severe rheumatic mitral restenosis was referred to AFIC/NIHD for commissurotomy. A Closed Mitral Valvotomy (CMV) for severe mitral stenosis had already been done 8 years earlier, and her symptoms had reappeared. She was evaluated with transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography and found to have a mitral valve area of 0.6 cm2, ...

متن کاملThe Immediate and Short Term Impact of Successful Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy on Right Ventricular Function
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immediate and short term follow up impact of Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy (PTMC) on Right Ventricular (RV) function using twodimensional and tissue Doppler echocardiographic indices. Background: In patients with Mitral Stenosis (MS) RV function may be affected due to myocardial and hemodynamic factors. Previous studies ...
متن کاملSHORT TERM CLINICAL OUTCOME OF PERCUTANEOUS BALLOON MITRAL VALVULOPLASTY VERSUS SURGICAL CLOSED MITRAL COMMISSUROTOMY
BaIlon mitral valvuloplasty and closed mitral valve conunissurotomy were performed in 450 and 127 patients, respectively. Also, 254 patients with severe mitral stenosis were enrolled in a prospective randomized trial comparing the two procedures. Immediately after balloon mitral valvuloplasty, mean left atrial pressure was 11.38±3.54 mmHg, transmitral valve gradient was 1.8±2 mmHg, and mit...
