Prognostication of transluminal balloon valvuloplasty when treating aortal stenosis

The study includes 56 patients with aortal stenosis. Among them 38 male and 18 female, age 16,11,3 years old. All the patients underwent a routine examination that included chest X-ray study, ECG and 2D- Echo. All the patients underwent transluminal balloon valvuloplastic. Analyzing the information from research we can conclude that the better results occurred with the ratio balloon size/fibrosis ring of aortic valve 0,92-0,97. 22 patients had perfusion scintigrafia miocardis showed the presence of patologia microcirculation. There was a correlation between microcirculation and age of patients and peak systolic gradient. The microcirculation improved if peak systolic gradient decreased less then 40 mm Hg. We think that is a criteria of success of balloon valvuloplastic is a effective approach for aortal stenosis treatment.
