Acute and long-term follow-up results of percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty: a single-center study
Korkmaz, Sule; Demirkan, Burcu; Guray, Yesim; Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan; Aksu, Tolga; Sasmaz, Hatice (TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2011)Objective: Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) is the method of choice in treatment of patients with hemodynamically significant mitral stenosis. We aimed to analyze acute and long-term clinical and echocardiographic ... -
Atrial natriuretic peptide predicts impaired atrial remodeling and occurrence of late postoperative atrial fibrillation after surgery for symptomatic aortic stenosis
Yimaz, Mehmet Birhan; Erbay, Ali Riza; Balci, Mustafa; Guray, Yesim; Cihan, Gokhan; Guray, Umit; Kisacik, Halil L.; Korkmaz, Sule (KARGER, 2006)Background. Aortic stenosis (AS) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Natriuretic peptides (NP) are endogenous cardiac hormones, which have been shown to increase in patients with ... -
