  • Title: Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty for concurrent mitral, aortic and tricuspid rheumatic stenosis.
    Author: Sobrino N, Calvo Orbe L, Merino JL, Peinado R, Mate I, Rico J, Garcia Garcia J, Sobrino JA.
    Journal: Eur Heart J; 1995 May; 16(5):711-3. PubMed ID: 7588907.
    Abstract:
    Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty has been used with good results to treat rheumatic mitral stenosis. However, its use in degenerative aortic stenosis has shown many limitations. There is little information about balloon valvuloplasty in tricuspid and aortic rheumatic stenosis. This article describes two patients with combined rheumatic mitral, aortic and tricuspid stenosis in which triple percutaneous valvuloplasty was performed in a single procedure.
