Abstract

Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is a growing recognized entity, especially with the increasing use of the valve in vale procedures and the advent of new detection technologies (e.g., 4D CT and 4D echocardiography). The incidence of BPVT is higher in transcatheter valves than surgically implanted bioprosthetic valves. However, the best thromboprophylaxis regimen and optimal management strategy in the acute context remain unknown. This paper presents a case of early thrombosis following the percutaneous tricuspid valve in vale procedure that was successfully managed with thrombolysis. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
