The safety and efficacy of [[PMBC]] have been shown compared with [[surgical]] closed or open [[commissurotomy]] in [[patients]] with a favorable [[valve]] morphology with less than 2+ [[mitral regurgitation]] and no evidence of [[left atrium]] [[thrombus]]. [[PMBC]] is performed by addressing one or more [[balloon catheters ]] across the [[mitral valve]] and inflating them, then splitting the [[commissures]]. [[Valve morphology]] including mobile and relatively thin [[valve leaflets]], without [[calcium]] deposit, in the absence of significant [[subvalvular fusion]] are favorable for this [[procedure]]. An anatomic [[mitral]] morphology score can be used to determine suitability for [[PMBC]] and to evaluate the appearance of the [[commissures]] and degree of [[calcification]]. The outcome is also predicted by clinical factors including [[age]], [[NYHA]] class, and presence or absence of [[atrial fibrillation]]. [[Older]] [[patients]] with lower [[gradients]] (<10 mm Hg) will not have a good [[outcome]] as [[patients]] with higher [[ gradients]], probably because of presence of other [[problems]] that cause [[symptoms]], including [[LV diastolic dysfunction]] and [[LA]] noncompliance. [[PMBC ]] should be performed only by experienced [[Heart]] team, with [[surgical]] backup for potential [[complications]]. Reported long-term follow-up shown 70% to 80% of [[patients]] are free of recurrent [[symptoms]] after [[PMBC]] at 10 years, and 30% to 40% are free of recurrent [[symptoms]] at 20 years.

=== Indications ===
*[[PMBV]] is currently the standard of care in [[patients]] with severe [[rheumatic]] [[mitral stenosis]] and favorable [[valve]] [[anatomy]].
In asymptomatic patients, intervention is recommended in moderate to severe MS and pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary artery systolic pressure >50 mmHg at rest or >60 mmHg with exercise).
* [[PMBV]] is preferred to open [[surgery]] in [[symptomatic]] [[moderate]] to severe [[MS]], [[MVA]]≤ 1.5 cm², [[NYHA]] [[functional class]] 2-4, favorable [[valve anatomy]], lack of [[commisural calcification]], no or mild [[mitral regurgitation]], and no [[left atrium]] [[thrombosis]]. <ref name="pmid33889711">{{cite journal |vauthors=Abu Rmilah AA, Tahboub MA, Alkurashi AK, Jaber SA, Yagmour AH, Al-Souri D, Lewis BR, Nkomo VT, Erwin PJ, Reeder GS |title=Efficacy and safety of percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy in patients with mitral stenosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis |journal=Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc |volume=33 |issue= |pages=100765 |date=April 2021 |pmid=33889711 |pmc=8050729 |doi=10.1016/j.ijcha.2021.100765 |url=}}</ref>


When intervention is indicated in patients with rheumatic MS, the 2006 ACC/AHA guidelines recommend that Percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy (PMBV) is preferred to surgery if the valve morphology is favorable and the patient does not have left atrial thrombus or moderate to severe (3+ to 4+) mitral regurgitation. Valve repair is performed if possible and preferred over valve replacement which has higher perioperative mortality and morbidity. Valve repair includes both open commissurotomy and placement of an annuloplasty ring after direct visualization of the valve <ref name="pmid18820172">{{cite journal| author=Bonow RO, Carabello BA, Chatterjee K, de Leon AC, Faxon DP, Freed MD et al.| title=2008 Focused update incorporated into the ACC/AHA 2006 guidelines for the management of patients with valvular heart disease: a report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Task Force on Practice Guidelines (Writing Committee to Revise the 1998 Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease): endorsed by the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists, Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions, and Society of Thoracic Surgeons. | journal=Circulation | year= 2008 | volume= 118 | issue= 15 | pages= e523-661 | pmid=18820172 | doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.108.190748 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18820172 }} </ref>.

The decision of whether valvuloplasty is superior to surgery depends on age (<60 favors valvuloplasty), and Cath/ECHO findings (e.g. LVEDP, degree of mobility, thickening and calcification).  The average end result for the mitral valve surface area with both strategies is about 2 cm2.  Moderate or greater MR (mitral regurgitation) and LA thrombus are contraindications to valvuloplasty.


Mitral stenosis is amenable to percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty if the echocardiography demonstrates :
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
* Thickening confined to valve tips.
| colspan="1" style="text-align:center; background:LightGreen" |[[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Classification of Recommendations|Class I]]
* Good mobility of Anterior mitral valve leaflet.
|-
* Little chordal involvement.
| bgcolor="LightGreen" |1.   In symptomatic patients (NYHA class II, III, or IV) with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) and favorable valve morphology with less than moderate (2+) MR* in the absence of LA thrombus, PMBC is recommended if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center ([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|''Level of Evidence: A'']]).
* No more than trivial [[mitral regurgitation]].
2.   In severely symptomatic patients (NYHA class III or IV) with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) who 1) are not candidates for PMBC, 2) have failed a previous PMBC, 3) require other cardiac procedures, or 4) do not have access to PMBC, mitral valve surgery (repair, commissurotomy, or valve replacement) is indicated.([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|''Level of Evidence: B-NR'']]).
* No left atrial thrombus.
|}
* No commissural calcification.
 
To determine which patients would benefit from Percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy (PMBV), a scoring system has been developed.<sup>2</sup>  Scoring is based on four [[echocardiogram|echocardiographic]] criteria:
*Leaflet mobility.
*Leaflet thickening.
*Subvalvar thickening.
*Calcification.
Individuals with a score of &ge; 8 tended to have suboptimal results.<sup>3</sup>  Superb results with valvotomy are seen in individuals with a crisp opening snap, score < 8, and no calcium in the commissures.
 
=== Technique ===
 
The interventional cardiologist gains access to the mitral valve by making a puncture in the interatrial septum during cardiac catheterization. Inflation and rapid deflation of a single balloon or a double-balloon opens the stenotic valve. This mechanism is similar to that of surgical commissurotomy <ref name="pmid8448794">{{cite journal| author=Inoue K, Feldman T| title=Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy using the Inoue balloon catheter. | journal=Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn | year= 1993 | volume= 28 | issue= 2 | pages= 119-25 | pmid=8448794 | doi= | pmc= | url= }} </ref>.
 
* Transvenous transeptal technique is most commonly used with the Inoue balloon system.
* [[Fossa ovalis]] lies usually at 1-7 o’clock but this orientation can be distorted in the presence of mitral stenosis where the interatrial septum becomes more flat, horizontal and lower.
* For the femoral vein approach a 70 cm Brockenbrough needle should be used or an 8 Fr Mullins sheath and advanced under fluoroscopic guidance with pressure monitoring.
* The latter is necessary to monitor for puncture into adjacent structures such as aorta.
* Further catheter manipulation may be necessary to direct the catheter into the left ventricle through the mitral valve rather than towards one of the pulmonary veins.
* The Mullins sheath is exchanged for a solid-core coiled 0.025 inch guidewire over which a 14 Fr dilator is placed.
* This is exchanged for the Inoue balloon (24-30 mm) which inflates in three stages allowing for balloon self-positioning with the last inflation resulting in commissural splitting.
 
A transthoracic echocardiography should be done to measure the mitral valve area and assess the severity of regurgitation as a complication of the procedure. PMBV should be stopped if adequate valve area has been achieved or if the severity of mitral regurgitation has been increased.
 
=== Outcome ===
* Complications are usually less than 5% of cases with low mortality.
* Failure to puncture the interatrial septum is the most common reason for aborted procedure.
* Most common complication is development of severe mitral regurgitation The indication for invasive treatment with either a mitral valve replacement or valvuloplasty is NYHA functional class III or IV symptoms.

Some trials showed that the outcome after PMBV is better than the surgical commissurotomy approach <ref name="pmid1918709">{{cite journal| author=Patel JJ, Shama D, Mitha AS, Blyth D, Hassen F, Le Roux BT et al.| title=Balloon valvuloplasty versus closed commissurotomy for pliable mitral stenosis: a prospective hemodynamic study. | journal=J Am Coll Cardiol | year= 1991 | volume= 18 | issue= 5 | pages= 1318-22 | pmid=1918709 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=1918709  }} </ref>.

=== Indications ===
* Making decision on the type of treatment ([[PMBV]] or [[surgery]]), as well as its timing, is based on [[clinical]] characteristics, [[anatomy]] of [[valve]] and [[subvalvular apparatus]], and local expertise.
* [[Intervention]] is indicated in [[patients]] with moderate-to-severe [[rheumatic]] [[mitral stenosis]] ([[valve area]] ≤1.5 cm2) in whom [[PMC]] has had a significant impact on its management.
* In [[Western]] countries, the [[incidence]] of [[rheumatic fever]]  and number of [[PMBV]] is low.

*Indications for [[PMBV]] have expanded to involve less suitable conditions including [[suboptimal valve anatomy]] and also [[palliative]] therapy in [[elderly]] [[patients]] who are poor [[surgical]] candidates.
* The cost of intervention is lower than [[mitral valve replacement]] surgery.
 
 
*To determine which [[patients]] would benefit from [[Percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy]] ([[PMBV]]), a scoring system has been developed. Scoring is based on four [[echocardiogram|echocardiographic]] criteria:
*[[Leaflet]] mobility
*[[Leaflet]] thickening
*[[Subvalvar thickening]]
*[[Calcification]]
*Individuals with a score of &ge; 8 tended to have suboptimal results. Superb results with valvotomy are seen in individuals with a crisp opening snap, score < 8, and no [[calcium]] in the commissures.

Overview

The safety and efficacy of PMBC have been shown compared with surgical closed or open commissurotomy in patients with a favorable valve morphology with less than 2+ mitral regurgitation and no evidence of left atrium thrombus. PMBC is performed by addressing one or more balloon catheters across the mitral valve and inflating them, then splitting the commissures. Valve morphology including mobile and relatively thin valve leaflets, without calcium deposit, in the absence of significant subvalvular fusion are favorable for this procedure. An anatomic mitral morphology score can be used to determine suitability for PMBC and to evaluate the appearance of the commissures and degree of calcification. The outcome is also predicted by clinical factors including age, NYHA class, and presence or absence of atrial fibrillation. Older patients with lower gradients (<10 mm Hg) will not have a good outcome as patients with higher gradients, probably because of presence of other problems that cause symptoms, including LV diastolic dysfunction and LA noncompliance. PMBC should be performed only by experienced Heart team, with surgical backup for potential complications. Reported long-term follow-up shown 70% to 80% of patients are free of recurrent symptoms after PMBC at 10 years, and 30% to 40% are free of recurrent symptoms at 20 years.

Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvotomy (PMBV)

2020 ACC/AHA Guideline for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease: A Report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Joint Committee on Clinical Practice Guidelines[2]

Class I
1.   In symptomatic patients (NYHA class II, III, or IV) with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) and favorable valve morphology with less than moderate (2+) MR* in the absence of LA thrombus, PMBC is recommended if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center (Level of Evidence: A).

2.   In severely symptomatic patients (NYHA class III or IV) with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) who 1) are not candidates for PMBC, 2) have failed a previous PMBC, 3) require other cardiac procedures, or 4) do not have access to PMBC, mitral valve surgery (repair, commissurotomy, or valve replacement) is indicated.(Level of Evidence: B-NR).


Class IIa
3.   In asymptomatic patients with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage C) and favorable valve morphology with less than 2+ MR in the absence of LA thrombus who have elevated pulmonary pressures (pulmonary artery systolic pressure >50 mm Hg), PMBC is reasonable if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center (Level of Evidence: B-NR).
Class IIb
4.   In asymptomatic patients with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage C) and favorable valve morphology with less than 2+/ MR* in the absence of LA thrombus who have new onset of AF, PMBC may be considered if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center(Level of Evidence: C-LD).

5.   In symptomatic patients (NYHA class II, III, or IV) with rheumatic MS and an mitral valve area >1.5 cm2, if there is evidence of hemodynamically significant rheumatic MS on the basis of a pulmonary artery wedge pressure >25 mm Hg or a mean mitral valve gradient >15 mm Hg during exercise, PMBC may be considered if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center.(Level of Evidence: C-LD). 6.   In severely symptomatic patients (NYHA class III or IV) with severe rheumatic MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) who have a suboptimal valve anatomy and who are not candidates for surgery or are at high risk for surgery, PMBC may be considered if it can be performed at a Comprehensive Valve Center.(Level of Evidence: B-NR).

Recommendation for Nonrheumatic Calcific MS

Class IIb
1.   In severely symptomatic patients (NYHA class III or IV) with severe MS (mitral valve area ≤1.5 cm2, Stage D) attributable to extensive mitral annular calcification, valve intervention may be considered only after discussion of the high procedural risk and the individual patient’s preferences and values.(Level of Evidence: C-LD)


Recommendations for percutaneous mitral commissurotomy and mitral valve surgery in moderate or severe mitral stenosis (valve area <1.5 cm2)
(Class I, Level of Evidence B):

❑ PMC is recommended in symptomatic patients with favourable characteristics for PMC

(Class I, Level of Evidence C):

❑PMC is recommended in any symptomatic patients who are high risk for surgery ❑Mitral valve surgery is recommended in symptomatic patients who are not appropriate for PMC in the absence of futility

(Class IIa, Level of Evidence C):

❑PMC should be considered as initial treatment in symptomatic patients with favourable clinical and anatomical characteristics for PMC
❑PMC should be considered in asymptomatic patients with suboptimal valve anatomy favourable clinical characteristics for PMC and:

Indications



  • Lowering a high LA pressure after PMBC might be beneficial in restoring normal sinus rhythm.

Contraindications for percutaneous mitral commissurotomy in rheumatic mitral stenosis

Technique

The interventional cardiologist gains access to the mitral valve by making a puncture in the interatrial septum during cardiac catheterization.

  • Inflation and rapid deflation of a single balloon or a double-balloon opens the stenotic valve. This mechanism is similar to that of surgical commissurotomy.[8]
  • Transvenous transeptal technique is most commonly used with the Inoue balloon system.
  • Fossa ovalis lies usually at 1-7 o’clock but this orientation can be distorted in the presence of mitral stenosis where the interatrial septum becomes more flat, horizontal, and lower.
  • For the femoral vein approach a 70 cm Brockenbrough needle should be used or an 8 Fr Mullins sheath and advanced under fluoroscopic guidance with pressure monitoring.
  • The latter is necessary to monitor for punctures into adjacent structures such as the aorta.
  • Further catheter manipulation may be necessary to direct the catheter into the left ventricle through the mitral valve rather than towards one of the pulmonary veins.
  • The Mullins sheath is exchanged for a solid-core coiled 0.025-inch guidewire over which a 14 Fr dilator is placed.
  • This is exchanged for the Inoue balloon (24-30 mm) which inflates in three stages allowing for balloon self-positioning with the last inflation resulting in commissural splitting.
  • A transthoracic echocardiography should be done to measure the mitral valve area and assess the severity of regurgitation as a complication of the procedure.
  • PMBV should be stopped if adequate valve area has been achieved or if the severity of mitral regurgitation has been increased.

Outcome

  • Long-term follow-up has been shown an initial good result and free of recurrent symptoms in 70% to 80% of patients after PMBC at 10 years, and 30% to 40% are free of recurrent symptoms at 20 years.[9]
