Intermittent electromechanical dissociation as an unusual sign of prosthetic valve thrombosis in a patient with prosthetic fibrous ingrowth
2000, Journal of the American Society of EchocardiographyCitation Excerpt :However, the cardiac failure ocurring in patients with malfunctioning prosthetic valves is known as one of the secondary forms of EMD.5 Failure of the mobile component of a prosthetic valve to open or close properly may occur as a result of thrombus formation, disk or ball variance, vegetation,6 entrapment of left ventricular myocardium,7 suture entanglement,8 and fibrous ingrowth into the valve orifice. The result may be prosthetic valve stenosis and/or insufficiency.
