TCTAP A-166 Study of Clinical, Echocardiographic and Hemodynamic Characteristics of Male and Female Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy

TCTAP A-166 Study of Clinical, Echocardiographic and Hemodynamic Characteristics of Male and Female Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy

Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) using an Inoue balloon catheter is of established efficacy and safety and is an alternative to surgical valvotomy in selected patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. After PTMC mean mitral valve area increased from 0.85 ± 0.11 cm2 to 1.65 ± 0.27...
