Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy using the Inoue technique was performed in a patient with a severe subvalvular lesion. Although not entrapped or impeded by the subvalvular lesion, the distal balloon was levered upwards and the procedure ended up with the balloon catheter popping-out during the late phase of inflation.
