Abstract:
:A critically-ill 73-year-old man was admitted with simultaneous mitral valve endocarditis and aortic stenosis. Balloon aortic valvuloplasty was performed successfully and without complications and was followed by prompt clinical improvement. Balloon aortic valvuloplasty should be considered in patients with aortic stenosis and nonaortic valve endocarditis.
