Clinical Outcomes After Valve Intervention in Rheumatic Mitral Valve Disease
This study identified older age and higher NYHA functional class as significant predictors of composite outcomes in patients with rheumatic MV disease requiring intervention. Left ventricular systolic dysfunction was independently associated with increased mortality following both percutaneous and surgical intervention. Long-term outcomes were comparable between patients undergoing PMV and MVR, reinforcing PMV as an effective alternative to surgery in appropriately selected patients.
