1. Cardiac catheterization and allied technics arc of importance in the management of patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis 2. Based on physiologic findings provided by catheterization, these patients can be divided into 4 groups: predominant mitral block; mitral block with pulmonary vascular disease; predominant myocardial failure; and no hemodynamic abnormality. 3. The first two groups usually benefit from mitral commissurotomy, while the latter two are best managed by medical means and periodic observation.
