ABSTRACT
Clinical, hemodynamic and fluoroscopic findings were analysed in 1123 patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease. The incidence of mitral valve calcification was 15 percent (mild 3 percent, moderate 9 percent, and severe 3 percent). There was a male preponderance (male 17 percent, female 5 percent). The presence of moderate to severe degree of calcification of mitral valve correlated with age, rhythm, transmitral gradient, associated mild mitral regurgitation, pulmonary artery pressure, systemic embolisation and previous commissurotomy. No correlation was found between the degree of calcification and presence or absence of other valve lesions.
