HCMC - The patient is narrow-edged with double leaf valves. If not intervened promptly, the patient is at high risk of complications and death.

City International Hospital said it has admitted a patient to the hospital with prolonged difficulty breathing due to narrowing of the double-leaf valve with complications of increased pulmonary arterial pressure and heart failure. The patient was quickly prescribed an ultrasound by the doctor and determined to have a narrow double leaf valve, the area of the valve opening was significantly reduced, causing blood from the left ward to the left ward to be obstructed, leading to increased lung pressure and heart failure.

The hospital has organized a hospital-wide consultation and decided that the patient is qualified to perform double leaf valve application with a ball through the skin, the method is considered an effective intervention solution, less invasive, shortening recovery time compared to traditional heart valve surgery.

Dr. CKI. Le Van Tuyen - Department of Interventional Cardiology, City International Hospital said that the patient was given a double leaf valve performed in the cardiovascular intervention room (Cathlab) under the continuous guidance of an ultrasound of the heart through the esophagus to ensure accuracy and safety in all stages. The process is done through the thigh vein, the pass and the sphere passing through the ventricular wall to the location of the narrowed double-leaf valve, then the ball is pumped to separate the edge of the valve, restoring blood circulation.

The procedure was safe and convenient, and the huyetomic index improved significantly immediately after the intervention. The patient was monitored after the procedure and discharged after only one day, in a stable condition, with normal breathing and circulation.

Dr. CKI. Le Van Tuyen added: Two-leaf Vanilla is a common cardiovascular disease in people who have had low heart disease. When not detected early and treated promptly, the disease can progress to heart failure, arrhythmia or severe pulmonary hypertension. Scalping the leaves through the skin is a safe and effective treatment that helps restore heart function without open surgery".

The doctor recommends that people with symptoms of shortness of breath, rapid fatigue, Trance or leg swelling should see a cardiologist for a periodic heart ultrasound, early detection of abnormalities and timely treatment.
