MITRAL STENOSIS COMPLICATED BY RENAL ARTERY EMBOLISM
Six patients with mitral stenosis complicated by renal artery embolism studied prospectively are presented. In five patients there was unilateral and in one patient bilateral renal artery involvement. The diagnosis was confirmed by intravenous pyelography, retrograde pyelography, renal angiography, renal scan or a combination of these. All had atrial fibrillation, proteinuria and elevated ...
متن کاملImmediate Results of Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvuloplasty in Patients with Mitral Stenosis
Introduction: Mitral stenosis is a prevalent valvular disease in developing countries. Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) is the gold standard treatment. The main objective of this study was to assess the initial results of PMBV in patients with mitral stenosis during 16 years (2002-2018) in Mashhad, Iran. Materials and Methods: From April 2002 to March 2018, 770 patients underwen...
متن کاملPathology of the lungs in mitral stenosis in relation to respiratory function and pulmonary haemodynamics.
In mitral stenosis, chronic rises in left atrial pressure lead to progressive changes in the structure and function of the lungs: these have been reviewed by Arnott in his Croonian lectures of 1963. We have investigated a small group of patients with this disease in order to study the relation between histological changes in their lungs and abnormalities in their pulmonary heemodynamics and res...
متن کاملThe electrocardiogram in mitral stenosis.
For many years certain electrocardiographic changes have been associated with mitral stenosis. As far back as1913, Sir Thomas Lewis wrote: " The electrocardiograms of mitral stenosis are often so characteristic that the valve lesion may be diagnosed from these curves alone." It has, however, been realized that considerable reservation must be made respecting the value of this investigation in t...
متن کامل[Mitral stenosis].
Phonocardiography is-often more valuable than electrocardiography in timing mechanical events in the cardiac cycle. This study shows that the opening and closing of the mitral valve are related to the length of the previous heart cycle as demonstrated by the variations occuring in aluricular fibrillation. These variations in valve action are controlled by the pressure gradient between left auri...
