CBV for adults with aortic and mitral stenosis is investigational at the
present time and should usually be performed within the guidelines of
clinical investigation. The technology is an evolving one with regard to
types of catheters and balloons, methods of catheter insertion and
placement, and patients and valves that are suitable for and will respond
well to CBV. The initial results range from disappointing to excellent and
must be kept in perspective. The procedure is clearly a palliative one;
ideal results are not being achieved at present. Some of the complications
are very serious. Nevertheless, CBV is a most promising catheter
interventional technique for patients with valvular heart disease. Proper
selection of patients and complete reporting of results is important.
