Percutaneous Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty
نویسنده
چکیده
Balloon valvuloplasty techniques and equipment have continued to evolve over the last two decades. With this expanded experience, there has been refinement in patient selection and a clearer understanding of the benefits, limitations, and long-term results of balloon valvuloplasty. In this chapter the mechanisms, indications, techniques and clinical results of balloon valvuloplasty of the mitral, pulmonic, and aortic valves are described.

SHORT 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...
متن کاملImmediate Results of Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvuloplasty in Patients with Mitral Stenosis
Introduction: Mitral stenosis is a prevalent valvular disease in developing countries. Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) is the gold standard treatment. The main objective of this study was to assess the initial results of PMBV in patients with mitral stenosis during 16 years (2002-2018) in Mashhad, Iran. Materials and Methods: From April 2002 to March 2018, 770 patients underwen...
متن کاملRight Atrial Clot Formation Early after Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvuloplasty
Mitral balloon valvuloplasty which has been used for the treatment of rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) for several decades can cause serious complications. Herein, we presented right atrial clot formation early after percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty which was treated successfully with unfractioned heparin infusion.
متن کاملPercutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty during pregnancy: long-term follow-up of infant growth and development.
We have studied the long-term growth and development of seven infants who had been exposed during the foetal stage to ionising irradiation associated with percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty between 1 April 1991 and 30 November 1993. We found that infants of mothers who underwent this procedure during the second and third trimester of pregnancy had normal long-term growth and development....
متن کاملHomograft - the optimal aortic valve substitute?
valvuloplasty can be performed safely and with satisfactory results in over 85% of these patients. It is also possible that repeat PMV can be performed in these patients with acceptable risks and results. In our own single centre experience in about 390 procedures repeat percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty was performed in 17 cases (mean age 65 13 years) without any increase in the rate of acute...
متن کاملEffects of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty and exercise training on the kinetics of recovery oxygen consumption after exercise in patients with mitral stenosis.
AIMS Kinetics of recovery oxygen consumption after exercise plays an important role in determining exercise capacity. This study was performed to assess the kinetics of recovery oxygen consumption in mitral stenosis and evaluate the effects of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty and exercise training on the kinetics. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty patients with mitral stenosis (valve area <...
