Degenerative Mitral Stenosis—Diagnostic Challenges and Future Directions
Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Determining the severity of stenosis in degenerative mitral stenosis (DMS) is fraught with challenges. Neither a high trans-mitral gradient nor a small valve area calculation is sufficiently diagnostic for DMS due to variable left atrial and left ...
