Valvuloplasty is performed, in certain circumstances, to open a stenotic (stiff)
heart valve. In valvuloplasty, a very small, narrow, hollow tube, or catheter,
is advanced from a blood vessel in the groin through the aorta into the heart.
Once the catheter is placed in the valve to be opened, a large balloon at the
tip of the catheter is inflated until the leaflets (flaps) of the valve are opened.
Once the valve has been opened, the balloon is deflatedand the catheter is
removed.
Other related procedures that may be used to assess and treat the heart
include resting and exercise electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), Holter monitor,
signal-averaged ECG, cardiac catheterization, chest x-ray, computed
tomography (CT scan) of the chest, coronary artery bypass graft surgery,
valve repair/replacement surgery, echocardiography, electrophysiological
studies, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart, myocardial perfusion
scans, radionuclide angiography, and ultrafast CT scan.

Why is Valvuloplasty performed?
Valves are doors or gates that are
present in the heart. Depending on their
location, they can be aortic, pulmonary,
mitral, and tricuspid valves. These valves
control the flow of blood to and from the
heart. When these valves become narrow
(stenosis) due to hardening and calcium
deposits, Valvuloplasty is performed to
enlarge the narrowed opening and
facilitate the flow of blood through them

Valvuloplasty is used for selective patients who have mitral valve stenosis or
pulmonary valve stenosis and cannot undergo a Open Heart
Surgery or Beating Heart Surgery (major surgery) for Heart Valve
Replacement. Valvuloplasty is also a procedure of choice in older or
debilitated patients with aortic stenosis who are considered high risk for
above mentioned major surgical procedures. Valvuloplasty is also indicated in
children with congenital aortic stenosis, until the child is old enough to have
Heart Valve Replacement surgery.

Reasons for the Procedure
Valvuloplasty is performed in certain situations in order to open a heart
valve that has become stiff as a result of disease or the aging process. Not
all conditions in which a heart valve becomes stiff are treatable with
valvuloplasty. There may be other reasons for your physician to recommend
a valvuloplasty
