Left Atrial Thrombus in a Patient with Mitral Bioprosthetic Valve
Bioprosthetic valves are used for patients who’s conditions are unfavorable for anticoagulant therapy. A 72-year-old woman underwent operation for severe mitral stenosis and mild regurgitation in our cardiovascular surgery clinic four years ago 27 mm (this is highly unusual) St Jude to have a bioprosthesis mitral valve implanted. Surgeons chose bioprosthesis instead of a mechanical valve due to...
متن کاملLeft atrial function in patients with mitral valve regurgitation.
The purpose of this study was to assess left atrial (LA) function and myocardial mechanics in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR). Eighty patients with degenerative MR and twenty control subjects were included prospectively. LA volume (LAV) and right atrial (RA) volume (RAV) were measured with three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography at three phases of the cardiac cycle...
متن کاملMitral Annular Kinetics, Left Atrial, and Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Post Mitral Valve Repair in Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation
OBJECTIVE The relationship of mitral annular (MA) kinetics to left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) function before and after mitral valve (MV) repair has not been well studied. Here we sought to provide comprehensive analysis that relates to MA motions, and LA and LV diastolic function post MV repair. METHODS Three-dimensional analyses of mitral annular motion, LA function, and LV volum...
متن کاملStenotic mitral valve prosthesis with left atrial thrombus.
We report the CMR findings of a patient with stenotic biological mitral valve prosthesis that was complicated by thrombus formation in the left atrium. The case illustrates the ability of CMR to assess biological prosthetic valves and to provide a comprehensive diagnostic approach in this clinical scenario.
متن کاملLarge free-floating left atrial thrombus with normal mitral valve.
Left atrial thrombus in the presence of diseased mitral valve and atrial fibrillation is a well known entity. But it is very rare to occur in the presence of normal mitral valve apparatus. We report the case of a 36 year old female who presented with left atrial ball valve thrombus and normal mitral valve apparatus and underwent surgery. This patient with gangrene of right lower limb came for c...
