          Abstract

          An octogenarian was admitted because of severe aortic stenosis (AS) and mitral stenosis. He declined surgical double-valve replacement and underwent intracardiac echocardiography–guided transseptal puncture and concurrent Inoue (Toray, Tokyo, Japan) balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) and balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV). Nine months later, he had worsening pulmonary edema and received a second session of Inoue BAV and BMV. Our case shows that concurrent transseptal Inoue BAV and BMV can treat severe AS and mitral stenosis with adequate safety and efficacy. However, the durability is limited in elderly persons with calcified AS. The procedure should be reserved for patients who refuse surgery.

          Résumé

          Un octogénaire a été admis en raison d’une sténose de l’aorte (SA) et d’une sténose mitrale (SM) graves. Il a refusé de se soumettre à un double remplacement valvulaire par voie chirurgicale et a plutôt subi une intervention transseptale guidée par échocardiographie intracardiaque afin de réaliser en même temps une valvuloplastie aortique par ballonnet (VAB) et une valvuloplastie mitrale par ballonnet (VMB) selon la méthode d’Inoue (Toray, Tokyo, Japon). Neuf mois plus tard, il présentait un œdème pulmonaire allant en s’aggravant et a subi une deuxième intervention de VAB et de VMB d’Inoue. Le cas exposé montre qu’il est possible de traiter sans danger et efficacement une SA et une SM graves par une VAB et une VMB d’Inoue réalisées par voie transseptale. La durabilité de l’intervention est toutefois limitée chez les personnes âgées présentant une SA calcifiée. L’intervention devrait être réservée aux patients qui refusent la chirurgie.

          Percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty: antegrade transseptal vs. conventional retrograde transarterial approach.

          Percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) has been limited predominantly to a palliative treatment for poor surgical candidates with critical aortic stenosis and multiple high-risk or comorbid conditions. The most commonly used technique for BAV is the retrograde approach, in which the balloon is passed via the femoral artery using 12-14 Fr sheaths. We compared an antegrade transseptal approach using the Inoue balloon vs. the retrograde transarterial approach using conventional balloons. The antegrade group had an improved acute hemodynamic outcome, including 20% additional increase of aortic valve area and 20% greater reduction of transaortic valve gradient compared to the retrograde approach. Preclosure with the Perclose device was used for the 14 Fr venous access sites, resulting in immediate hemostasis, minimizing the need for transfusion, and diminishing the period of bed rest. The improved acute efficacy and relative ease of venous access for the antegrade approach facilitate BAV by eliminating the need for large-caliber arterial access sheaths. The antegrade approach also incorporates technical elements necessary for percutaneous aortic valve replacement and may have expanded applications as an adjunct to this developing therapy. The impact of improved acute results on the long-term clinical outcome for this patient group will require further study. Copyright 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

            Balloon aortic valvuloplasty in young adults by antegrade, transseptal approach using Inoue balloon.

            Transvenous, transseptal, antegrade balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) was successfully performed in 16 consecutive young adults with noncalcific aortic stenosis using Inoue balloon catheter. There were 13 males and three females, with a mean age of 20.4 +/- 5.8 years (range 14-30 years). All the patients had normal left ventricular systolic function. All procedures were performed electively by the antegrade technique, except the initial index case in whom, the stenosed aortic valve could not be crossed retrogradely. Dilatation was performed using stepwise technique keeping the balloon:annulus ratio or = 1.5:1) was observed in one case. The average procedure time was 20 +/- 8 min (range 18-35 min). On follow-up (n = 11 patients) at 4 +/- 1.5 months (range 2-7 months) all the patients were asymptomatic. Doppler transaortic peak systolic gradient was found to be 15 +/- 10.3 mm Hg (range 4-36 mm Hg). Antegrade BAV technique using Inoue balloon for noncalcific aortic stenosis in young adults is safe, effective and may be technically advantageous.

              Concurrent antegrade transseptal Inoue-balloon mitral and aortic valvuloplasty.

              The Inoue balloon has been in use for many years for mitral valvuloplasty. Aortic valvuloplasty using the Inoue balloon via transseptal approach was developed in the hope of providing better results with less potential vascular access complications.
