Cardiac Valvular Pathology: Comparative Pathology and Animal Models of Acquired Cardiac Valvular Diseases

Toxicologic Pathology, 2008
Recent voluntary withdrawal of the ergoline-derivative Alzheimers’ drug Pergolide (Permax) resulting from demonstrated risk of cardiac valve injury illustrates the increased importance of valve injury in pharmaceutical toxicology. Following the 2001 landmark discovery of cardiac valve injury associated with the widely prescribed anti-obesity drug ...
