or benefit from this approach. We searched for studies including two or more patients treated with throm¬ bolytic agents. Ten studies were reviewed. We de¬ scribe and include two patients with valve thrombosis treated at our institution. A total of 182 episodes of prosthetic valve thrombosis in 162 patients were ex¬ amined. Clinical success was achieved in 72.0% of cases and there was a mortality risk of 9.9%. Clinical success from thrombolysis was significantly related to the degree of heart failure at presentation and aortic valve position. Clinical success was not related to the duration ofsymptoms, time from valve replacement to obstruction, or valve type. Rethrombosis of success¬ fully treated valve occurred subsequently in 19.5% of
