  • Title: [Surgical tactics in pregnant women with mitral valve stenosis].
    Author: Tulenov MT.
    Journal: Kardiologiia; 1975 Mar; 15(3):124-8. PubMed ID: 1142597.
    Abstract:
    The rationale of undertaing operative interventions in pregnant women with mitral stenosis of the III and IV stages is analyzed. On the basis of his investigations the author thinks that in women with severe mitral stenosis of the II and IV stages and with the gestation term of up to 30 weeks mitral commissurotomy is indicated. In patients at these stages of the disease and with full-term pregnancy laparotomy may be performed when there is no pulmonary edema and no risk of its development. Simultaneous mitral commissurotomy and cesarian section are indicated in women with mitral stenosis of the III and IV stages and full-term pregnancy in cases of already existing pulmonary edema or when there is a danger of its development.
