BMJ Case Reports, 2017 The decrease in the incidence of acute rheumatic fever in western countries has led to a sharp decrease in the incidence of mitral stenosis. This decrease also modifies the clinical presentation and mitral stenosis is now encountered in older patients who have severe impairment of valve anatomy.

Study of Mitral Valve Insufficiency: A Systemic Review [PDF]
Journal of Medical and Life Science, 2023 The Rationale Behind the Evaluation Mitral valvular disease, which includes mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation, is the focus of this review. The structure of the valve is our starting point for this discussion.According to recent studies, 3D ...

Quadrivalvular Involvement in Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Rare Case Report
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022 Four-valve involvement (mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary) in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an exceedingly rare entity. We report the case of a 24-year-old male, a known case of RHD, who presented with dyspnea and presyncope for 2 months.

Congenital Mitral Stenosis [PDF]
Circulation, 1954 Nine cases of congenital mitral stenosis are presented, with a review of 34 cases from the literature. A high incidence of associated malformations of the aortic valve, the aorta and the ductus arteriosus is apparent. Clinical findings and results of investigative procedures have been reviewed.

A Novel “Over the Wire” Technique for a Case of Difficult Percutaneous Transvenousmitral Commissurotomy [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018 Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy (PTMC) is the preferred treatment for isolated rheumatic valvular mitral stenosis if the valve has suitable anatomy. Following transseptal puncture, entry into left ventricle is the crucial step. This may be

Degenerative Mitral Stenosis Versus Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2020 Mitral stenosis is classically caused by rheumatic disease (RMS). However, degenerative mitral stenosis (DMS) is increasingly encountered, particularly in developed countries with aging populations. The aim of this study was to compare clinical and echocardiographic characteristics between the 2 entities.

Mitral bones in mitral stenosis: A rare presentation
Journal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2017 Pulmonary ossification is described as mature bone formation with or without marrow elements in alveolar or interstitial spaces. Pulmonary ossification is a rare late sequelae that is virtually pathognomonic of mitral stenosis. Mitral bone is nothing but
