A 42-year old male with known insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and otherwise unremarkable medical history presented with nausea, vomiting, and atypical chest pain for 2 days. His initial vital signs were remarkable for ...
A comprehensive review of the diagnosis and management of mitral paravalvular leakage
(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2020)
Mitral paravalvular leaks (PVLs) commonly occur in patients with prosthetic valves. Paravalvular defects may be clinically inconsequential and may aggravate hemolysis or cause heart failure through regurgitation. Accordingly, ...
Evaluation of the relationship between platelet indices and spontaneous echo contrast in patients with mitral prosthetic heart valves
(2020)
Objective: Spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) is defined as dynamic, smoke-like echoes within the cardiac cavities with a characteristic swirling motion seen on echocardiography. Clinical studies have demonstrated that SEC ...
