The aims of this study were: 1) to assess the feasibility and reliability of performing mitral valve area (MVA) measurements in patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis (RhMS) using real-time 3-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3DTEE) planimetry (MVA(3D)); 2) to compare MVA(3D) with conventional techniques: 2-dimensional (2D) planimetry (MVA(2D)), pressure half-time (MVA(PHT)), and continuity equation (MVA(CON)); and 3) to evaluate the degree of mitral commissural fusion.
