Información del artículo
La trombosis de las válvulas protésicas biológicas es una complicación infrecuente, que se asocia con mortalidad elevada. En este artículo se reporta el caso de un paciente de género masculino, de 72 años de edad, con prótesis valvular biológica en posición aórtica y trombosis asociada a degeneración valvular, así como el de una paciente de género femenino de 64 años de edad, con prótesis biológica en posición mitral y trombosis de la misma en el contexto de una infección sistémica. Ambos casos se evaluaron mediante ecocardiografía transesofágica tridimensional en tiempo real.
Palabras clave:

Thrombosis of biological prosthetic valves is a rare complication, associated with high mortality. We report the case of a 72 years old male patient with biological valve prosthesis in the aortic position and thrombosis associated with valvular degeneration, as well as that of a 64 years old female patient with bioprosthesis in the mitral position and thrombosis of it in the context of a systemic infection. Both cases were evaluated by three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in real time.
Key words:
transesophageal echocardiography
thrombosis
