Abstract:
98 patients were operated surgical commissurotomy in the No 108 Military Hospital from March 1995 to May 2000. All patients were performed Doppler ultrasonography pre- and post-operation. All patients were received surgical commissurotomy by Tubs. Hemodynamics was changed with satisfactory results after surgical commissurotomy the pulmonary arteries pressure down from 50.4 15.5 to 36.6 7.9 mmHg; MaxPG (mmHg) down from 22.1 7.6 to 12.3 3.3 and mean PG (mmHg) also down from 13.5 4.8 to 6.9 4.5. For right indication and contraindication in surgical intervention, as well as prognosis of postoperative patient's life, the evaluation of hemodynamic indexes are necessary, in which Doppler ultrasound plays an importance role in assessing the pre- and postoperative results
