Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) in patients with rheumatic severe mitral stenosis and thrombus in the left atrial appendage.Methods We selected 11 patients (9 women and 2 men), the average age being 40.6?5.7 years. All cases received warfarin orally every day for more than 12 weeks before underwent PBMV used Inoue single balloon technique, to see whether systemic thromboembolism complication occurred during the operation and one year follow-up term. Results The successful rate of PBMV was 100%. No systemic thromboembolism occurred during and after PBMV. The parameters of hemodynamics, mitral valve area and cardiac function improved markedly.Conclusion PBMV on patients with severe mitral stenosis and thrombus in the left atrial appendage is safe and effective after certain anticoagulation treatment.
