Abstract
Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty is a well-established elective treatment for mitral stenosis in selected patients; it has been used to treat cardiogenic shock secondary to aortic stenosis but has not been previously used for cardiogenic shock secondary to mitral stenosis. We describe a case of cardiogenic shock secondary to severe mitral stenosis, treated by balloon mitral valvuloplasty.
