Predictors of successful percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy using the Bonhoeffer Multi-Track system in patients with moderate to severe mitral stenosis: Can we see beyond the Wilkins score?

In our study, we assessed cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients compared with control sub- jects by bedside autonomic function tests..

Using the device results in mono- cuspidalisation of the mitral valve by preserving the anterior leaflet and the subvalvular apparatus.. As the anterior leaflet contributes 70% of the

Transesophageal echocardiography demonstrates a posteriorly directed eccentric jet of severe mitral regurgitation from the middle scallops of both mitral leaflets (A2 and P2

Left atrial spontaneous echo contrast and thrombus formation at septal puncture during percutaneous mitral valve repair with the MitraClip system of severe mitral regurgitation:

Two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D-TEE) revealed mitral valve perforation and aortic valve vegetation (Fig.1A and Video 1A. See corresponding video/movie images

Echocardiographic examination (Fig. 2a and 2b) revealed an increase in left ventricular systolic function (Fractional shorte- ning: 52.29 %, Ejection fraction: 92.00%), increased
