Abstract

Background: Mitralstenosisis the most frequent cardiac valve injury in pregnant women and increases the risk of morbidity and mortality for both mother and fetus. Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty can be performed during pregnancy without a high risk of maternal-fetal mortality.

Objective:To evaluate the results of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty in pregnant women with severe mitral stenosis.

Methods: Are trospective observational cohort study was conducted, which included 34 pregnant women with severe mitral stenosis who required percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty during the period from 2000 to 2018.

Results:The meanage was 27,6 ± 5,7 years; with a gestational age at the time of procedure and delivery of 24,0 ± 3,3 and 37,7 ± 0,9 weeks, respectively, and a mean birth weigh to f2747,9 ± 288,2 grams. Theme an post-procedure mitral valve area was 1,8 ± 0,2cm2, accompanied by a significantin crease in patients with New York Heart Association functional class I after the procedure (0,0 to 76,5 %, p < 0,0001). A significant reduction was also found in the maximum and mean transmitral diastolic gradient (27,3 ± 6,8 to 12,2 ± 4,0 mmHg and 16,3 ± 4,8 to 6,4 ± 2,8 mmHg), the diameter of the left atrium (47,79 ± 5,6 to 37,5 ± 7,8 mm), the left atrial mean (30,9 ± 7,5 to 16,8 ± 8,6 mmHg) and systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (49,6 ± 18,4 to 25,5 ± 11,2mmHg).

Conclusions: Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty is a safe and effective technique in pregnant women with severe mitral stenosis.
