Abstract :

 Percutaneous Transvenous mitral comissurotomy using INOUE/ACCURA balloon is an effective procedure for management of patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. [1] Inability to cross mitral valve is one of the important reasons of procedural failure. Juvenile MS is defined as rheumatic mitral stenosis before the age of 20 years according to Roy et al.[2] Juvenile MS is one subset of population where conventional method of BMVs may not give us suitable post procedural outcome. We describe series of four patients in which over the wire technique has been used to cross the mitral valve.
