Overview

The development of this approach was done by Inoue in 1984 and Lock in 1985 for the treatment of mitral stenosis.[1][2] For a long time, surgical commissurotomy and open valve replacement were the only methods by which mitral stenosis could be corrected.[3] PMBV can be performed in chronically symptomatic patients, patients who present emergently with cardiac arrest or pulmonary edema and in asymptomatic patients who plan on childbearing or major noncardiac surgery.[4][5] There is improvement in the mortality rates for mitral stenosis by intervention by percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy or surgery. Mitral valvuloplasty is a minimally invasive therapeutic procedure to correct an uncomplicated mitral stenosis by dilating the valve using a balloon. Under local anaesthetic, a catheter with a special balloon is passed from the right femoral vein, up the inferior vena cava and into the right atrium. The interatrial septum is punctured and the catheter passed into the left atrium using a "trans-septal technique". The balloon is sub-divided into 3 segments and is dilated in 3 stages. 1st the distal portion (lying in the left ventricle) is inflated and pulled against the valve cusps. Second the proximal portion is dilated, in order to fix the centre segment at the valve orifice. Finally the central section is inflated. This should take no longer than 30 seconds since full inflation obstructs the valve and causes congestion, leading to circulatory arrest and flash pulmonary edema.

Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvotomy (PMBV)

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 surgeryMitral 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 clinicalcharacteristicsc for PMC and:

The above algorithm adopted from 2021 ESC Guideline[7]

Indications


Individuals with a score of ≥ 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.

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.[10]

  • 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

  • PMBV versus open and closed surgical commissurotomy

Some trials showed that the outcome after PMBV is better than the surgical commissurotomy approach.[11] Long term outcome studies showed that the mitral valve area was less in closed commissurotomy compared to other approaches, also the rate of restenosis was higher for closed commissurotomy approach.[12]

Some trials showed that the outcome after mitral valve replacement combined with tricuspid valve repair (if the patient has tricuspid regurgitation) is better than PMBV in patients with severe mitral stenosis and severe tricuspid regurgitation.[13]

  • Results of the commisurotomy should be assessed with hemodynamics and echocardiography
  • If second inflation is needed mitral regurgitation should be assessed
  • In general increasing valve area to greater than 1 cm2/m2 is an acceptable result
  • Usually the valve area doubles and the pulmonary pressures degrease immediately
  • 5 year survival is in the 90% range

Complications

  • Usually less than 5% 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
