Status of the epicardial coronary arteries in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome in patients with mechanical prosthetic heart valves (from the TROIA-ACS Trial)
(Elsevier Inc., 2018)
Coronary thromboembolism (CE) is a rare cause of prosthetic valve derived complications. This study investigates the diagnosis and treatment strategies for non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS) in patients ...
Management of an acute ischemic stroke during thrombolytic treatment in a pregnant patient with prosthetic valve thrombosis
(Akademiai Kiado Rt., 2017)
Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) is a life-threatening complication in pregnant women with mechanical prosthetic heart valves. Thrombolytic therapy (TT) has evolved as an effective treatment alternative to surgery, which ...
The relationship between heparanase levels, thrombus burden and thromboembolism in patients receiving unfractionated heparin treatment for prosthetic valve thrombosis
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
Introduction: Procoagulant activity of heparanase has been recently described in several arterial and venous thrombotic disorders. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of heparanase with regard to thrombus burden, ...
Intermittent malfunction and regurgitation of a mitral prosthetic valve due to entrapment by a residual subvalvular apparatus
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2018)
Intermittent malfunction is a rare but potentially serious complication of prosthetic heart valve (PHV) replacement. It may be observed in both mitral and aortic valve prosthesis and may lead to either paroxysmal obstruction ...
Evaluation of the potential predictors of embolism in patients with left atrial myxoma
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2019)
Introduction: Cardiac myxomas are the most common primary intracardiac tumors. Although myxomas are histologically benign, they are potentially dangerous due to potential risk of systemic and cerebral embolism. In this ...
Noninvasive diagnostic tools available for discrimination pannus from thrombus in patients with prosthetic valve dysfunction
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2019)
We have recently read with great interest the article by Barroso Freitas‐Ferraz et al1 entitled “Prosthetic aortic valve thrombosis: To fibrinolyse or not to fibrinolyse? That is the question!”. The authors reported a case ...
Identification of mechanical prosthetic heart valves based on distinctive cinefluoroscopic and echocardiographic markers
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2019)
The past 65 years have witnessed remarkable progress in the development of safe, hemodynamically favorable mechanical heart valves. Today, there are a large number and variety of prostheses in use and many prostheses have ...
Echocardiographic measurement of epicardial adipose tissue thickness in patients with microvascular angina
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2019)
Introduction: Impaired coronary microcirculation, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction were reported etiological factors for microvascular angina (MVA). Recently, increased epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness ...
Management of acute coronary syndromes in patients with prosthetic heart valves
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2020)
Dear Editor, We have recently read with great interest the article reported by Donmez et al which was published in the last issue of Cardiology in the Young1 . We would like to contribute to the case report by drawing ...
Improvement of endothelial function early after thrombolytic therapy in patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis
(2020)
Objective: Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) is a serious complication among patients with prosthetic heart valves. Thrombolytic therapy (TT) is now widely used as first-line treatment for PVT. Endothelial dysfunction has ...
