Abstract

Balloon valvuloplasty is used to treat stenotic lesions of the pulmonic, aortic, and mitral valves. The patient populations appropriate for this procedure are highly different for each of the three valve types. The major contraindication to balloon valvuloplasty in any of these valve positions is severe valvular regurgitation.
