Mitral stenosis Echocardiography
1. 15 year old boy Rahul came with symptoms
dyspnea ,migratory joint pains, fever. His
echocardiogram showed the following features,
What is your probable diagnosis ?
8. • Mitral stenosis (MS) is a mechanical
obstruction in blood flow from the left atrium
to the left ventricle.
• The normal area of the mitral valve orifice is
about 4–6 cm2
• Impediment to the flow of blood into left
ventricle creating pressure gradient occurs
when the mitral valve area goes below 2 cm2
9.
10. Etiology
• Mitral stenosis consists of 12% of all valvular heart disease in Euro
Heart Survey.
• Rheumatic heart disease (90 %)
• Infective endocarditis, ball valve thrombosis , atrial myoxma
• Mitral annular calcification
• Congenital malformation ( parachute mitral valve)
• Systemic lupus erythematosis
• Carcinoid heart disease
• Endomyocardial fibrosis
• Radiation-associated valve disease, including MS, is increasingly
recognized as late manifestation in survivors of Hodgkin’s
lymphoma
11. • M-mode echocardiogram — The M-mode
examination is performed from the precordium
and guided from the 2D long and short axis
views.
• Normally, the anterior mitral leaflet exhibits a
motion pattern that reflects the phasic nature of
ventricular filling and produces a familiar M-
shaped pattern
• The posterior leaflet moves in a nearly mirror
image "W" pattern with a smaller excursion
15. 2D of mitral stenosis
• The following parameters need to be assessed
about the valve morphology:
• Thickening
• Mobility
• Subvalvular fusion
• Commissural fusion
• Calcification.
16. Valvular thickening
• Normal mitral valve thickness is 2-4 mm
• Mitral leaflet thickness can be compared to
posterior aortic wall thickness, and the ratio
gives an objective assessment.
• Normally, the ratio of valve thickness/posterior
aortic wall thickness is < 1.4.
• 1.4 to2.0 mild Thickening
• 2 to 5 moderate thickening
• >5 severe thicknening
17. Mobility of valve
• (PLAX) and apical four-chamber views
• Assessed by reid index by a line drawn from
posterior aortic root wall to the anterior mitral
leaflet tip
• H/L ratio (ab/xy ratio)
• <0.25 mild
• 0.25-0.44 moderate
• >0.45 severe
21. • Two-dimensional echocardiogram — The 2D
appearance of the normal mitral valve on TTE
depends somewhat upon the imaging plane
from which it is viewed.
• In the parasternal short axis plane, the valve
presents itself as an ovoid (fish mouth) orifice
22.
23. • parasternal long axis and apical views, it
resembles clapping hands
• anterior hand longer and more mobile than
the posterior
24.
25.
26. • mitral valve leaflets are thin and translucent;
the rough attachment points of its chordae to
their free margins are thicker than their
smooth bellies. The chordae from each leaflet
connect to both papillary muscles.
• the valve appears homogeneous and thin, <4
mm in thickness.
27. What happens in mitral stenosis ?
• Anatomically, the commissural separation
between the anterior and posterior or mural
leaflets is
• subvalvular apparatus is altered by chordal
foreshortening
28. • Immobility of the posterior leaflet is a
common early finding with a "hockey
stick/knee bend" appearance to the anterior
mitral leaflet due to leaflet tethering.
• Doming of the anterior leaflet corresponds
temporally to the opening snap on
auscultation.
29. M Mode diagnosis for mitral stenosis
• severity of obstruction, a slope of less than
10 mm/sec (normal is >60 mm/sec) during
suspended respiration means severe mitral
stenosis
• Reversal of diastolic motion from the normal
pattern makes the M-mode of the posterior
leaflet one of the most valuable means of
identifying mitral stenosis

33. 2 D evaluation of mitral stenosis
• dome or bulge into the ventricle throughout
diastole
36. 2D Planimetry
• In the parasternal short axis plane, the
opening of the valve can be imaged just above
the tips of the papillary muscles.
• From this orientation, its maximum diastolic
opening area can be measured by direct
planimetry of the 2D image.
• A mitral valve area (MVA) of less than 1.5
cm2 is considered severe, regardless of the
method used to calculate its size.
37. Calculation of mitral valve area
• Pressure half time method
• Empirically, a pressure half-time of 220 msec
is equivalent to a valve area of 1.0 cm2;
therefore:
• MVA = 220 ÷ pressure half-time
38.
39.
40. Doppler methods
• Doppler methods can measure the velocity of mitral inflow.
• In mitral stenosis, this velocity increases at rest from a normal value
of less than 1 m/sec to greater than 1.5 m/sec.
• The algorithm to convert Doppler velocity into pressure gradient is
the modified Bernoulli equation.
Peak gradient, in mmHg = 4 x peak velocity2
• Thus, a peak velocity of 1 m/sec indicates a peak gradient of 4
mmHg; a peak velocity of 2 m/sec indicates a peak gradient of 16
mmHg; 3 m/sec indicates a peak gradient of 36 mmHg.[
41. • The mean transmitral gradient can be
measured by tracing the area-under-the-curve
of the mitral E and A waves obtained by
continuous wave Doppler.
• With severe mitral stenosis, the mean
transmitral gradient is >10 mmHg in sinus
rhythm at heart rates between 60 and 80 bpm

tips ( apical 4 chamber view )
Calculate the pressure gradient
value > 10 is severe mitral stenosis
44. Indirect methods to identify severity of
mitral stenosis
• degree of foreshortening of the chordae
tendineae
• leaflet calcification
• left atrial enlargement
• right ventricular and atrial dilatation
• measuring degree of tricuspid regurgitation
and pulmonary hypertension, as determined
by Doppler of tricuspid regurgitant jet.
45. • 2014 AHA/ACC guideline for valvular heart
disease defined severe mitral stenosis as
• MVA ≤1.5 cm2 (MVA ≤1.0 cm2 with very
severe MS) and diastolic pressure half-time
≥150 ms
• diastolic pressure half-time ≥220 ms with very
severe MS, along with severe left atrial
enlargement and pulmonary artery systolic
pressure >30 mmHg

• For patients with valvular heart disease and atrial
fibrillation (except for patients with rheumatic mitral
stenosis or a mechanical prosthesis)the decision to use oral
anticoagulation to prevent thromboembolic events, with
either a vitamin K antagonist or a non–vitamin K antagonist
anticoagulant, should be made in a shared decision-making
process based on the CHA2DS2-VASc score.
• Patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis or a mechanical
prosthesis and atrial fibrillation should receive oral
anticoagulation with a vitamin K antagonist.
