Prognostic Value of HALP Score in Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis: A Long-Term Follow-up Study. [PDF]

Clin Cardiol
In 169 patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis, a low HALP score was associated with increased long‐term MACCE risk. The HALP score showed modest predictive value (AUC 0.644) but was not an independent predictor. It may serve as a simple complementary tool for risk stratification alongside established clinical parameters.

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

The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.

Chronic Mitral Stenosis [PDF]

Circulation, 2011
A 40-year-old man with history of closed mitral valvotomy performed for rheumatic mitral stenosis 10 years prior was admitted to our hospital with atrial fibrillation and dyspnea on exertion. Posteroanterior (Figure 1) and lateral (Figure 2) chest radiographs exhibited the following classic findings of chronic mitral stenosis. Figure 1.

Tissue Doppler assessment of left ventricular diastolic function in rheumatic mitral stenosis

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2011
Background: Left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions are reported to be altered in mitral stenosis. Although conventional Doppler ultrasound recording of transmitral flow is used in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic function, yet, in ...
