    Abstract:
    In a 76-years old female patient with calcific aortic stenosis percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty reduced the aortic gradient from 80 mm Hg to 40 mm Hg. The preexisting aortic regurgitation did not increase after the procedure. Balloon valvuloplasty was performed without any complications and the patient was discharged one week after.
