Wilkins Mitral Valve Echo Score
Wilkins mitral-valve echo score (1988): leaflet mobility + thickening + calcification + subvalvular thickening, each 1-4 (total 4-16); <= 8 favorable for percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty.

Example
- Leaflet mobility
- 2
- Leaflet thickening
- 2
- Leaflet calcification
- 2
- Subvalvular thickening
- 2
Result: Wilkins score 8 — favorable for balloon valvuloplasty (<= 8).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- <= 8
- Favorable for percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty.
- 9-12
- Intermediate.
- >= 13
- Unfavorable (mobility + thickening + calcification + subvalvular, each 1-4). An anatomy score, not a diagnosis.
What you enter
- Leaflet mobility (1-4)
- Leaflet thickening (1-4)
- Leaflet calcification (1-4)
- Subvalvular thickening (1-4)
