title: [Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty in a patient with mitral stenosis].
abstract: Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty of mitral stenosis was described in 1984. The subsequent results were promising and the method appears to be capable of replacing surgical valvotomy. Mitral balloon valvuloplasty in a patient with non-calcified rheumatic mitral stenosis is described here.
