PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review provides an update on rheumatic mitral stenosis. Acute rheumatic fever (RF), the sequela of group A β-hemolytic streptococcal infection, is the major etiology for mitral stenosis (MS). RECENT FINDINGS: While the incidence of acute RF in the Western world had substantially declined over the past five decades, this trend is reversing due to immigration from non-industrialized countries where rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is higher...

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is a major health hazard in most developing countries as well as sporadically in developed economies with high prevalence rates. Mitral stenosis is among the important morbid valvular conditions accounting for 25% of RHD cases. Percutaneous transmitral commissurotomy (PTMC) using Inoue balloon is the standard treatment for severe mitral stenosis with favorable Wilkins score. In certain cases it is difficult to cross mitral valve (MV) either due to dilated left atrium (LA), low septal puncture, or severe mitral valvular and subvalvular stenosis leading to prolonged procedure time or failure of PTMC procedure...

Rheumatic heart disease remains a major cause of significant mortality and morbidity in the developing world. Rheumatic mitral and aortic stenosis are the two most common valvular sequelae of acute rheumatic fever. Open surgical procedures with either valve replacement or surgical commissurotomy have largely been replaced by percutaneous commissurotomy and balloon valvuloplasty for selected patients since the early 1980s. The purpose of our review is to examine the literature for any recent advancement in procedural techniques of balloon valvuloplasty for selected patients with rheumatic mitral and or aortic stenosis...

The past 2 decades have seen a proliferation of transcatheter mitral valve (MV) therapies, which are less invasive and distinct from surgical MV repair or replacement. The commonly used MV transcatheter therapies include (1) percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy (PMBC) for rheumatic mitral stenosis; (2) edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip for mitral regurgitation; (3) valve-in-valve implantation in bioprosthetic MV, native MV, or mitral ring; and (4) closure of paravalvular leaks (PVLs). This article will focus on the use of echocardiography in the diagnosis, patient selection, procedural guidance, and postprocedural follow-up for PMBC, with notes on the role of transesophageal echocardiography in transcatheter interventions for prosthetic valve degeneration and PVL closure...

BACKGROUND: Late prognosis after successful percutaneous mitral commissurotomy (PMC) is unclear. We compared late results of PMC using Inoue versus double-balloon techniques up to 25 years in a randomized trial. METHODS: Between 1989 and 1995, 302 patients (77 men, 41 ± 11 years) with severe mitral stenosis were randomly assigned to undergo PMC using Inoue (n = 152; group I) or double-balloon technique (n = 150; group D). The end points were the composite events of death, mitral surgery, repeat PMC, or deterioration of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class ≥3...

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension is a common complication of rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). Patients with similar mitral valve (MV) areas may have different pulmonary artery pressures. Net atrioventricular compliance (Cn) was found to play an important role in the development of pulmonary hypertension. AIM: To test the value of Cn in predicting persistent pulmonary artery hypertension (PPAH) after percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy (PMBC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eighty patients with severe MS, suitable for PMBC were included in the study...

Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) using Inoue/Accura balloon is an effective procedure for management of patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis.1 Inability to cross the mitral valve is one of the pertinent reasons for procedural failure. We describe a series of three patients who were tackled with successful PTMC using a novel technique of veno-arterial looping and in the fourth patient we used double loop entry into left ventricle with veno-arterial rail and peripheral balloon dilatation for completing the PTMC...

Mitral stenosis is often managed percutaneously with an interventional procedure such as balloon commissurotomy. Although this often results in an increased mitral valve area and improved clinical symptoms, this procedure is not benign and may have serious complications including the development of hemodynamically significant mitral valve regurgitation. Multiple scoring systems have been developed to attempt to risk stratify these patients prior to their procedure. CASE: A 64-year-old patient underwent an emergent mitral valve replacement after having percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy complicated by development of severe mitral regurgitation...

RATIONALE: Data on nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant being used for the treatment of LAA thrombi are limited only in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. There are no data on the antithrombotic efficacy and safety of nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant in the resolution of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombi in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 49-year-old woman with known rheumatic mitral stenosis and atrial fibrillation was referred for percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy because of progressive dyspnea on exertion over a period of 3 months...

Aortic stenosis is the most frequent and mitral stenosis is the least frequent native single-sided valve disease in Europe. Patients with the combination of severe symptomatic degenerative aortic and mitral stenosis are very rare. Guidelines for the treatment of heart valve diseases are clear for single-valve situations. However, there is no common agreement or recommendation for the best treatment strategy in patients with multiple valve disease and severe concomitant comorbidities. A 76-year-old female patient with the combination of severe degenerative symptomatic aortic and mitral stenosis and several comorbidities including severe obesity, who was found unsuitable surgical candidate by the heart team and unsuitable for two-time general anesthesia in the case of two-step single-valve percutaneous approach by anesthesiologists, underwent successful percutaneous dual-valve single-intervention (transcatheter aortic valve implantation and percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy)...

Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy (PTMC) is a standard treatment for critical mitral stenosis. In certain situations such as large left atrium (LA) or low trans-septal puncture, there is technical difficulty in crossing a PTMC balloon across the mitral valve, leading to high failure rate. I hereby describe a case of PTMC successfully performed by using double loop technique to cross the mitral valve.

Rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease continue to be the major health problem in all developing countries including Bangladesh. Rheumatic mitral stenosis is a very common problem in our population having an incidence of 54 percent among rheumatic heart disease with a female preponderance of 2:1. Percutaneous balloon mitral commissurotomy is appealing because the mechanism of valve dilation closely parallels the mechanism of surgical mitral commissurotomy. The technique of balloon mitral commissurotomy has evolved rapidly, with improvements in balloons, guide wires, and the application of double-balloon techniques...

Juvenile rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) is common in the Indian subcontinent. Early recognition and management is essential. Rarely rheumatic MS may occur in <5 years of age, wherein rapid hemodynamic progression and cardiac morbidity and mortality occurs. Severe/symptomatic MS in preschool age requires urgent and meticulous decision making. Condition of valve and wishes of parents may complicate management decisions. Percutaneous transmitral commissurotomy (PTMC) may, therefore, become the only life-saving intervention in these cases unless contraindicated, although the procedure entails considerable technical issues in this age group...

OBJECTIVES: To report the efficacy and safety of the use adjunctive intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) during percutaneous transluminal mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) in patients without transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). BACKGROUND: Patients with mitral stenosis are at a high risk of developing a left atrial (LA) thrombus. Traditionally, TEE has been used prior to PTMC to identify the presence of LA thrombi. There have been no reports of the use of ICE to assess the LA for thrombi prior to PTMC...
