Özet
This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of searching and finding probe patency during mitral balloon valvuloplasty and whether the duration of procedure and/or the incidence and severity of iatrogenic atrial septal defect decreased in this patient population. Sixty consecutive patients treated with mitral balloon valvuloplasty (MBV) were studied; data from 55 patients were analyzed.
