Abstract
Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis is a rare complication. Left atrial dilatation, atrial fibrillation, hypercoagulability and low cardiac output are known risk factors. We report the case of a patient undergoing a bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement who required postoperative circulatory support with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and presented acute bioprosthetic valve thrombosis. Some aspects regarding pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
