Delayed Diagnosis of Pulmonary Artery Thrombosis in a Patient Undergoing Mitral Valve Replacement
ANNALS OF CARDIAC ANAESTHESIA(2024)
摘要
The occurrence of pulmonary artery thrombus in association with rheumatic mitral stenosis is a rare complication. Pulmonary artery thrombus formation may worsen pulmonary artery pressures, and this may precipitate acute right heart failure. The possible mechanisms behind pulmonary artery thrombus formation during mitral valve replacement surgery could be acute coagulopathy following surgery, the presence of chronic pulmonary thromboembolism, or chronic atrial fibrillation. We report an unusual case of pulmonary artery thrombus in a patient with rheumatic MS which was diagnosed with transoesophageal echocardiography after MVR.
