Intracardiac Echocardiography to Diagnose Bioprosthetic Pulmonary Valve Thrombosis.

ABSTRACT: A 48-year-old woman presented with heart failure and bioprosthetic pulmonary valve regurgitation 2 years after pulmonary valve replacement. Intracardiac echocardiography demonstrated uniform thickening of a single prosthetic valve leaflet suggesting leaflet thrombosis rather than bioprosthetic valve degeneration. After 3 months of anticoagulation, valve regurgitation and symptoms improved. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Pseudothrombotic appearance on pulmonary valve by intracardiac echocardiography during atrial fibrillation ablation

Project description:We report a case with a thrombus‐like image on pulmonary valve detected by intracardiac echocardiography before transseptal puncture for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. The multimodality assessment provided diagnosis of the imaging artifact and exclusion from the harmful mass. This finding could be useful for a safety management of AF ablation and avoidance of an unnecessary interruption of the procedure.

Human menopausal gonadotropin-induced bioprosthetic valve thrombosis.

Project description:Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. Human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) is commonly used for ovulation induction and has been associated with arterial and venous thrombosis. We reported a case of BPVT related to in vitro fertilization in a 39-year-old female, who underwent redo mitral valve replacement. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of hMG-induced BPVT in a young female patient.

Recurrent bioprosthetic mitral valve thrombosis treated with anticoagulation.

Project description:Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is more common than previously thought and likely underreported. BPVT can be accurately diagnosed with cardiac imaging and treated successfully with anticoagulation, thus preventing reoperation. We hereby report a case of recurrent BPVT in the mitral position successfully treated with anticoagulation along with review of literature.

Three-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography and pulmonary embolism.

Project description:BackgroundThree-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography (3D ICE) with wide azimuthal elevation is a novel technique performed for assessment of cardiac anatomy and guidance of intracardiac procedures, being able to provide unique views with good spatial and temporal resolution. Complications arising from this invasive procedure and the value of 3D ICE in the detection and diagnosis of acute cardiovascular pathology are not comprehensively described. This case illustrates a previously unreported iatrogenic complication of clot displacement from the intra-vascular sheath upon insertion of a 3D ICE catheter and the value of 3D ICE in immediate diagnosis of clot in transit through the heart with pulmonary embolism.Case presentationWe conducted a translational study of 3D ICE with wide azimuthal elevation to guide implantation of a left ventricular assist device (Impella CP®) in eight adult sheep. A large-bore 14 Fr central venous sheath was used to enable right atrial and right ventricular access for the intracardiac catheter. Insertion of the 3D ICE catheter was accompanied by a sudden severe cardiorespiratory deterioration in one animal. 3D ICE revealed a large highly mobile mass within the right heart chambers, determined to be a clot-in-transit. The diagnosis of pulmonary clot embolism resulting from the retrograde blood entry into the large-bore sheath introducer, rapid clot formation and consequent displacement into venous circulation by the ICE catheter was made. The sheep survived this life-threatening event following institution of cardiovascular support allowing completion of the primary research protocol.ConclusionThis report serves as a serious warning to the researchers and clinicians utilizing long large-bore sheath introducers for 3D ICE and illustrates the value of 3D ICE in detecting clot-in-transit within right heart chambers.

Bioprosthetic Valve Thrombosis and Obstruction Secondary to COVID-19.

Project description:Patients with COVID-19 may present a hypercoagulable state, with an important impact on morbidity and mortality. Because of this situation pulmonary embolism is a frequent complication during the course of infection. We present the case of a patient recently discharged, after admission with confirmed COVID-19, who developed a pulmonary embolism and thrombosis of a biological mitral valve prosthesis, producing valve obstruction and stenosis. After 15 days of anticoagulant treatment, resolution of the thrombus and normalisation of prosthetic valve function was observed. This case supports current recommendations of administering full-dose anticoagulation therapy to COVID-19 patients with biological heart valve prosthesis, even after the acute phase of infection.

A Case of Bioprosthetic Mitral Valve Dysfunction, Initially Presenting with Valve Thrombosis Followed by Recurrent Thrombosis and Endocarditis.

Project description:Highlights•Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) can occur beyond 3 months postimplantation.•BPVT can reoccur after successful treatment with fibrinolysis and anticoagulation.•Other forms of bioprosthetic valve dysfunction can coexist with thrombosis.•Echocardiography can promptly diagnose bioprosthesis thrombosis.•Management requires valve replacement, thrombolysis, or anticoagulation•After BPVT long-term anticoagulation may be required.

Comparison of Intracardiac Echocardiography Versus Transesophageal Echocardiography for Guidance During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.

Project description:Background and objectivesEvidence regarding the efficacy and safety of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) for guidance during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is limited. This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of ICE versus transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for guiding TAVR.MethodsThis prospective cohort study included patients who underwent TAVR from August 18, 2015, to June 31, 2021. Eligible patients were stratified by echocardiographic modality (ICE or TEE) and anesthesia mode (monitored anesthesia care [MAC] or general anesthesia [GA]). Primary outcome was the 1-year composite of all-cause mortality, rehospitalization for cardiovascular cause, or stroke, according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-3 (VARC-3) definition. Propensity score matching was performed, and study outcomes were analyzed for the matched cohorts.ResultsOf the 359 eligible patients, 120 patients were matched for the ICE-MAC and TEE-GA groups, respectively. The incidence of primary outcome was similar between matched groups (18.3% vs. 20.0%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.94; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.53-1.68; p=0.843). ICE-MAC and TEE-GA also had similar incidences of moderate-to-severe paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) (4.2% vs. 5.0%; adjusted odds ratio, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.23-2.82; p=0.758), new permanent pacemaker implantation, and VARC-3 types 2-4 bleeding.ConclusionsICE was comparable to TEE for guidance during TAVR for the composite clinical efficacy outcome, with similar incidences of moderate-to-severe PVR, new permanent pacemaker implantation, and major bleeding. These results suggest that ICE could be a safe and effective alternative echocardiographic modality to TEE for guiding TAVR.

Reversal of Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Thrombosis Using Rivaroxaban-A Case Report.

Project description:Background: Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is a rare but recognized complication causing valve dysfunction. In subacute valve thrombosis, systemic oral anticoagulation is recommended. However, there is little data comparing the efficacy of warfarin and novel oral anticoagulant (NOAC) therapy in this setting. Case Summary: A patient developed subacute BPVT 11 years post-implantation. The patient was initially treated with warfarin for a period of 6 months, with limited effect. Following replacement of warfarin with rivaroxaban, there was significant reversal of the BPVT, as represented by a reduction in transaortic maximal velocity (Vmax) from 4.1 to 3 m/s over 7 months. Discussion: Systemic oral anticoagulation can be an effective treatment for subacute valve thrombosis. Guidelines currently recommend warfarin as first line but NOACs can be considered in such patients and may be more effective than warfarin. Randomized controlled trials are required to further establish the optimal anticoagulation for patients with subacute BPVT.
