“…Halseth and Smith :9 , 23) reported OMC reoperation rate s above 10 % for the same period of time , i.e., twice as high as the rate s for our group with CMC (4.2 %). In agreement with other investigators ( 10,11), the reope rations in our group could be characterized as early reoperations. Our evaluation of patients with MVR showed that reoperations occurred on an average of 10 to II years after CMC, with peaks aft er 3 years (early reoperations) and after more than 13 years (late reoperation s).…”

“…It is estimated that about 10-30% of patients developed restenosis 5-10 years after an initial successful surgical commissurotomy. 2 The efficacy of Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) in patients with unoperated mitral stenosis has been well documented though there exists less clear-cut data on its effectiveness in patients with mitral restenosis following closed mitral commissurotomy (CMC). Therefore, in this study, we analyzed our results obtained with balloon mitral valvuloplasty in patients with mitral restenosis after previous surgical commissurotomy.…”
