Mitral Stenosis most commonly develops many years after a person has had suffered from Rheumatic Fever, as during Rheumatic fever, the valve become s inflamed.
Valve stenosis can sometimes be treated with medications if the symptoms are mild. When the complications are beyond medications then surgery is advised. The most common surgery for treating Mitral Valve Stenosis is Balloon Mitral Valvotomy.

This hole provides an opening for the cardiologist to access the left atrium with a special catheter that has a balloon at the tip.
The catheter is positioned so the balloon tip is directly put inside the narrowed valve. The balloon is inflated and deflated several times to widen the valve opening. Once the cardiologist has determined that the opening of the valve has been widened enough, the balloon is deflated and removed.
During the procedure, the cardiologist may perform an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart) to get a better picture of the mitral valve.
When you go home after the procedure, call your doctor immediately if you have the following:
