Majumder et al. (2013) conducted a case report in Mitral Stenosis (n=1). Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) was evaluated on Mitral valve area and left atrial pressure. Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy successfully increased mitral valve area from 0.9 cm2 to 1.8-2.0 cm2 and reduced left atrial pressure in a 71-year-old woman with severe mitral stenosis.
