RESUMO
Prosthetic mechanical valve thrombosis has traditionally been managed with urgent surgical intervention. However, the risk of redo sternotomy can be prohibitively high in some patients. Thrombolytic therapy as a noninvasive treatment of mechanical valve thrombosis is a well-recognized alternative, but optimal dosing and patient selection remain incompletely characterized for right-side mechanical valves.
