Frugal innovation in the cardiac catheter laboratory: Retrograde balloon mitral valvuloplasty using extra back-up guide catheter.

ABSTRACT: Conventional antegrade balloon mitral valvuloplasty is not possible or better avoided in certain clinical situations. Retrograde balloon mitral valvuloplasty is a purely arterial technique designed to avoid complications of atrial septal puncture. We report a case of rheumatic heart disease with severe mitral stenosis and large atrial septal aneurysm where balloon mitral valvuloplasty was performed retrogradely with innovative use of routinely available cardiac catheter laboratory hardware instead of specialised hardware required for such cases. .

Novel Wire-Based Technique for Percutaneous Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty.

Project description:ObjectivesPercutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) for rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) using the classical Inoue technique can be technically challenging, especially in difficult anatomies. This paper describes a novel wire-based technique of PBMV that involves advancement of the Inoue balloon over a preshaped stiff 0.035-inch wire.Key stepsThese include targeted transseptal puncture, advancement of a steerable sheath to the left atrium, crossing the diseased mitral valve, exchanging for a 0.035-inch preshaped wire in the left ventricle, slenderization of the appropriately sized Inoue balloon on the wire, advancement and positioning of the balloon across the mitral valve, and balloon inflation.Potential pitfallsThis technique does use additional equipment, in addition to that in the standard Inoue balloon kit, specifically a steerable sheath and an 0.035-inch preshaped stiff wire.Take-home messagesDue to lower prevalence of rheumatic mitral stenosis in higher-income countries, even high-volume structural operators gain lesser experience with PBMV procedures. PBMV can be performed in a safe, predictable manner over the wire using the described approach.

The balloon impasse sign in percutaneous transvenous mitral valvuloplasty.

Project description:Percutaneous transvenous mitral valvuloplasty (PTMV) is an established therapy for rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). While the Wilkins score standardizes the description of valve anatomy and predicts successful PTMV, echocardiographic assessment has some limitations. The 'balloon impasse' sign is the inability to cross a stenotic valve with a deflated Inoue balloon. This sign was described in the 1990s as an indicator of severe subvalvular thickening (regardless of the echocardiographic findings), portending an increased risk of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) post-PTMV. Despite its implications for management, it has been seldom reported. A 57-year-old woman with symptomatic, severe MS and a Wilkins score of 7 underwent PTMV. The 'balloon impasse' sign was observed when attempting to cross the stenotic valve. When the balloon was fully inflated, severe MR was noted, and the patient required mitral valve replacement. This case demonstrates the continued importance of the 'balloon impasse' sign and its implications for the therapeutic efficacy of PTMV.

Asymmetric Calcification in Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis and Implications for Balloon Valvuloplasty.

Project description:A 50 year-old male with severe rheumatic mitral stenosis was deemed too high risk for surgery and referred for percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty. The valvuloplasty was successful in reducing the trans-mitral gradient and improving the patient's symptoms, however was complicated by a tear in the posteromedial commissure and moderate mitral regurgitation.

Left Ventricular Remodeling Following Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty in Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis: Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.

Project description:Background: Rheumatic heart disease affects primarily cardiac valves, it could involve the myocardium either primarily or secondary to heart valve affection. The influence of balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) on left ventricular function has not been sufficiently studied. Aim: To determine the influence of balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) on both global and regional left ventricular (LV) function. Methods: Thirty patients with isolated rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) were studied. All patients had cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) before, 6 months and 1 year after successful BMV. LV volumes, ejection fraction (EF), regional and global LV deformation, and LV late gadolinium enhancement were evaluated. Results: At baseline, patients had median EF of 57 (range: 45-69) %, LVEDVI of 74 (44-111) ml/m2 and LVESVI of 31 (14-57) ml/m2 with absence of late gadolinium enhancement in all myocardial segments. Six months following BMV, there was a significant increase in LV peak systolic global longitudinal strain (GLS) (-16.4 vs. -13.8, p < 0.001) and global circumferential strain (GCS) (-17.8 vs. -15.6, p = 0.002). At 1 year, there was a trend towards decrease in LVESVI (29 ml/m2, p = 0.079) with a significant increase in LV EF (62%, p < 0.001). A further significant increase, compared to 6 months follow up studies, was noticed in GLS (-17.9 vs. -16.4, p = 0.008) and GCS (-19.4 vs. -17.8 p = 0.03). Conclusions: Successful BMV is associated with improvement in global and regional LV systolic strain which continues for up to 1 year after the procedure.

Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter technique for pulmonary valve stenosis in adolescents and adults.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty is the procedure of choice for uncomplicated severe or symptomatic pulmonary stenosis. The present study describes our experience in balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty using the Inoue balloon catheter in adolescent and adult patients.AimsTo assess the immediate and mid-term outcomes of percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter in adolescent and adult patients.Methods and resultsBetween June 2010 and July 2015, we performed percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter in 32 patients (59.37% females) aged 8 to 54 years (mean 23.6±11.5). Following the procedure, the mean right ventricular systolic pressure and the pulmonary valvular peak-to-peak systolic gradient decreased from (121.6±42.4 to 61.19±24.5mmHg, p=0.001) and (100.9±43.3 to 36.4±22.5mmHg, p=0.001), respectively. Twenty patients (Group A) showed immediate optimal results with post-procedure peak systolic gradient <36mmHg while 12 patients (Group B) had suboptimal results. An increase in pulmonary regurgitation by one grade was detected in 17 patients (53.2%). Twenty-three patients available for follow-up (mean duration, 2.75 years [range 0.25-5 years]) had a mean residual peak gradient of 23.6±2.51mmHg on Doppler echocardiography with attenuation of reactive RVOT stenosis in all Group B patients. There was no further increase in grade of pulmonary regurgitation or restenosis on mid-term follow-up.ConclusionPercutaneous Inoue balloon technique is an attractive alternative with excellent mid-term results for adolescents and adults with isolated pulmonary stenosis.
