“…This difference is probably related to the more favorable mitral valve morphology in the young as demonstrated by their lower mitral echo score. These findings are comparable to those reported by other investigators 2–11 …”

“…It continues, nonetheless, to be the commonest cause of acquired heart disease in children of most developing countries 11,16 . Several studies have described the salutary immediate and midterm hemodynamic results of MBV in children with MS 1–11 . However, there is paucity of data on long‐term results 12 .…”

“…Mitral balloon valvuloplasty (MBV) is an established nonsurgical modality for the treatment of severe rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). Although numerous studies have documented favorable immediate and intermediate follow‐up results of MBV in children, 1–11 there is paucity of data on long‐term outcome of MBV in this age group 12 . The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long‐term (up to 18 years) clinical and echocardiographic follow‐up results of MBV in children and compare these results to those observed in the adult population and also identify predictors of long‐term outcome.…”

“…Although in children and adolescents with rheumatic mitral stenosis the immediate haemodynamic effects of MBV have been adequately documented, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] there are few reports regarding the long term results of MBV in this age group. 9 10 The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immediate and long term (up to 13 years) results of MBV in patients 20 years old or younger and compare these results to those obtained in the adult population.…”

Aims: To assess the safety, efficacy, and long term results of mitral balloon valvotomy (MBV) for rheumatic mitral stenosis in children and adolescents in comparison to adults. Methods: The results of 468 patients with mitral stenosis who underwent successful MBV and were followed up for 0.5-13 years were analysed. Patients were divided according to age at the time of MBV into group 1 consisting of 84 patients ( 20 years of age (children and adolescents) and group 2 that included 384 patients, age . 20 (adults). , and similar complication rates, compared to group 2. After a mean follow up of 5 (3.5) years there was no significant difference between groups 1 and 2 in the incidence of restenosis (14.3% v 16.1%, NS). Event-free survival rates at 5, 10, and 12.5 years were 93%, 79%, and 79% for group 1 and 94%, 90%, and 84% for group 2 (p = 0.18). Conclusions: MBV is safe and effective in children and adolescents with rheumatic mitral stenosis. It provides better immediate results than in adults and excellent long term results that are comparable to those seen in adults.
