Objective To study the effect of percutanous transluminal balloon mitral valvuloplasty(PBMV) on endothelin and endocrine hormones. Methods Plasma concentrations of endothelin(ET), atrial natriuretic factor(ANF), renin activity(PRA), angiotension Ⅱ(AⅡ) and hemodynamic changes were assessed in 14 patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis before and after PBMV.
