Factors favouring successful percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty

Mitral stenosis is amenable to percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty if the echocardiography demonstrates :

• Thickening confined to valve tips
• Good mobility of Anterior mitral valve leaflet
• Little chordal involvement
• not more than trivial mitral regurgitation
• no left atrial thrombus
• no commissural calcification.
