Fulminant thrombosis of mechanical mitral valve prosthesis [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2001
In patients with prosthetic heart valves non-cardiac surgery may require temporary discontinuation of oral anticoagulation. Although the risk of valve related thromboembolic complications may generally be only slightly increased during the short perioperative period, in the presence of certain risk factors, replacement of oral anticoagulation with ...

Shoulder Prosthesis Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Korean Shoulder and Elbow Society, 2010
Purpose: The goal of prosthetic replacement of the shoulder is the restoration of the normal anatomy of the joint. Materials and Methods: The physician should review the variations in normal anatomy because it does vary widely and the placement of the prosthetic needs to be modified to accommodate the variations. Results and Conclusion: Several factors
