Moderate mitral stenosis as per last report!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for choosing Health Care Magic for your query!
I can understand your concern,
Normal mitral valve area is 4-6 cm square.
1.3 comes under moderate mitral stenosis. You have not mentioned the mean gradient pressure of your last 2D echo.
Repeat a 2D echo every year and continue medicines as advised(if symptomatic); Normally mild to moderate MS is well tolerated by patients, post Ballooning.
In case you have any other query feel free to ask! I am a cardiologist myself practicing at XXXXXXX hospital. You can contact me at my email id YYYY@YYYY .
You can contact me on my email id to get appointment for 2D echo at XXXXXXX hospital, XXXXXXX or you can consult with Dr Mahkar XXXXXXX at XXXXXXX hospital, XXXXXXX or Dr Praneesh XXXXXXX Fortis, XXXXXXX 2D echo is generally done by technician or a junior doctor, only the results will be interpreted by XXXXXXX doctors.
Thanks and Regards
Dr Rishu Saxena
