A surgical procedure known as commissurotomy, devised by Bailey for the relief of certain cases of mitral stenosis, gives promise of considerable benefit to a large number of patients who have the disease. The technique of the operation involves the introduction of the right index finger and an especially designed valvulotome through the left auricular appendage into the left auricle. The mitral valve commissures are then divided. Twentyfive cases of mitral stenosis in which this operation was performed are discussed.
一种名为联合切开术的外科手术由贝利设计，用于缓解某些二尖瓣狭窄病例，有望为大量患有该疾病的患者带来显著益处。该手术技术包括通过左心耳将右手食指和一种特别设计的瓣膜刀插入左心房。然后切开二尖瓣联合处。本文讨论了25例接受该手术的二尖瓣狭窄病例。
