Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty using the Inoue technique was complicated by the failure to pass the dilator or balloon catheter above the vertebral level of L5 due to compression of the right common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery. The procedure was accomplished when a long sheath was used to pass the Inoue balloon catheter beyond the obstruction. |
