Prosthetic Valve Thrombus Versus Pannus: Progress With Imaging.
P rosthetic valve obstruction is a condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality. 1 The most common causes of obstruction include valve thrombosis or pannus formation. Thrombosis is more likely to occur early after valve implantation, in the setting of inadequate anticoagulation, and is more common in mechanical prostheses. 2,3 However, it can occur with bioprostheses and may de...
متن کاملA mass obstructing mechanical prosthetic heart valve: thrombus or pannus?
Mahajan K, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-219573 Description Mechanical prosthetic valve obstruction carries a significant morbidity and mortality, if not treated urgently.

It is critically important to exclude isolated pannus, since thrombolysis is an effective and rapid treatment option in ...
متن کاملThrombocytopenia induced by giant atrial thrombus in rheumatic valve disease
A 48-year-old man with no previous medical history presented with congestion signs and rapid atrial fibrillation. There was evidence of thrombocytopenia (16,000/mcl) and moderate elevation of transaminases. An abdominal echography showed no liver alterations and no splenomegaly. A thoracic CT scan revealed a giant left atrial mass with pulmonary vein infiltration (Fig. 1a). Transthoracic echoca...
