The risk of thrombosis of mechanical valves is higher in the mitral position compared with aortic position and in older generation valves (ball and cage valves). There is a wide spectrum of ...

Objective To explore the risk factors of perioperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with traumatic fracture after orthopaedic ... patients who had suffered haemorrhagic stroke, aortic ...

We describe a case of a hypercoagulable young patient with arterial embolism in whom investigations revealed a mural pedunculated aortic arch thrombosis without clear diffuse atherosclerotic lesions.

Subclinical leaflet thrombosis (SLT) has raised concerns about the long-term durability and outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Clinical valve thrombosis (CVT) is a rare ...

Abstract: Objective: Ultrasound-based aortic stiffness estimation has the potential to improve the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), as a complement to ...

Key clinical question: Given the lack of consensus on the optimal therapy for arterial thrombosis in cancer patients, the best practices for managing an aortic thrombus, and the benefit of low ...

A late-breaking study presented today at the 2025 Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Annual Meeting reveals that mechanical aortic valve replacements (AVRs) provide significant long-term survival ...

In 51 (76%) patients, diagnosis was established by means of Doppler ultrasound ... patients with extrahepatic PVT also had intrahepatic thrombosis (54%) and/or in the splenic vein (42%), and ...

There are often no symptoms until either the plaque ruptures the artery (arterial thrombosis), or balloons out to form an aneurysm ... in which dye is injected into your blood vessels so they can be ...

A speaker highlighted key advances in thrombosis and coronary disease treatment ... which evaluated transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis and either PCI or conservative ...

Its calculation requires precise continuous tracking of the aortic diameter over the cardiac cycle, which is not feasible by focused ultrasound. We aimed to develop an automatic aortic acquisition ...

The mechanism of action of NIUT consists of generating microscopic cavitation bubbles with short, high-pressure ultrasound pulses focused on the AV. As cavitation bubbles collapse, they produce shock ...
