Abstract
The burden of pregnancy in patients with severe mitral stenosis continues to present a therapeutic challenge. We present two such cases successfully treated with balloon valvuloplasty using the Inoue balloon. The unique features of this balloon may render it the technique of choice for selected pregnant patients with severe mitral stenosis.
