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
