Overview

Mitral stenosis of post-rheumatic etiology is nowadays a very rare disease in developed countries. Currently, it is encountered in clinical practice exclusively in elderly seniors. The occurrence of this disease at a younger age is extremely rare in the Czech Republic. However, the fact is that mitral stenosis remains, even today, a serious me­dical and socio-economic issue in developing countries. The following case report presents the case of an 83-year-old female patient with severe post-rheumatic mitral stenosis in the terminal stage of heart failure.

Keywords:
mitral stenosis – case report – treatment – pulmonary hypertension – heart failure
