Acute dysfunction from thrombosis of a mechanical mitral valve prosthesis
An 64-year-old man received a 31-mm CarboMedics mechanical prosthesis for severe mitral regurgitation. After four days the patient presented fatigue and dyspnoea with rest; transthoracic and transesophageal Doppler echocardiographic study confirmed a failing mobility of prosthetic valve leaflet from thrombosis and an emergency operation was done. The postoperative course was uneventful. This is...
متن کاملFulminant thrombosis of mechanical mitral valve prosthesis.
In patients with prosthetic heart valves non-cardiac surgery may require temporary discontinuation of oral anticoagulation. Although the risk of valve related thromboembolic complications may generally be only slightly increased during the short perioperative period, in the presence of certain risk factors, replacement of oral anticoagulation with heparin is recommended. In the presented patien...
متن کاملAcute thrombosis of mechanical bi-leaflet aortic valve prosthesis
Thrombosis of mechanical aortic valve prosthesis is a rare but life-threatening complication. In most reported cases, inadequate anticoagulation or cessation of anticoagulation is the cause of prosthesis thrombosis. The case of a 70-year-old male patient hospitalized for severe dyspnoea is presented. Although the patient was under continuous anticoagulation, thrombosis of the 16 years previousl...
متن کاملAcute thrombosis of a prosthetic mitral valve.
We report the case of a patient who was transferred to our hospital with acute thrombosis of a prosthetic mitral valve. Her admission INR was subtherapeutic. The transoesophageal echocardiographic images are presented. The patient underwent urgent reoperation and made a good recovery.
متن کاملAcute thrombosis of bioprosthetic mitral valve
We report a case of acute thrombosis of bioprosthetic mitral valve in a 59 year-old Korean female, who underwent a mitral valve replacement with a 25 mm Carpentier - Edwards PERIMOUNT Plus bioprosthesis (Edwards Lifesciences, Inc.; Irvine, CA, USA) and a mini-Maze procedure for correction of mitral stenosis (MS) and atrial fibrillation (AF). On the 10th postoperative day, the patient began to c...
