Abstract
In a total of 100 consecutive cases of mitral valve manipulation: including 60 cases of mitral commissurotomy, 32 cases of mitral valvuloplasty, and 8 cases of mitral cleft associated with interatrial septal defect, the repair was assessed by inserting a catheter with an extra hole into the left ventricle via the aorta, to fill the left ventricular cavity with blood. This maneuver proved to be more effica cious, at least in the authors' hands, than other prevailing methods. It can be repeated easily and is a reliable method with no untoward complications.
