Abstract

Redo heart surgery in patients with valvular pathology is associated with a higher rate of complications and mortality than the primary operation. An intervention cardiology procedure is a way to reduce the rate of complications. Percutaneous Transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) is considered an effective treatment for rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). A patient with a history of previous aortic valve replacement was referred to our department for severe MS therapy. The patient underwent successful PTMC and showed stable results during follow-up. The patient showed improved functional capacity from dyspnea New York Heart Association (NYHA) 3 to 1. This case shows that PTMC of MS in patients with a history of previous open-heart surgery is feasible and appears to be an alternative for redo surgical therapy.
