A Rare Case of Partial Aortic Mechanical Valve Thrombosis With Intact Mitral Mechanical Valve Presenting With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2020
The incidence of mechanical valve thrombosis (MVT) is around 0.4 per 100 patient-years. Mitral valve thrombosis has a higher incidence than aortic valve thrombosis with a nearly 5-fold increase. Various factors contribute to MVT. The most common cause of
