  • Title: Thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of right-sided prosthetic valve thrombosis in adults with congenital heart disease.
    Author: Johnson JA, Rauh RA, Phillips SD, Cetta F.
    Journal: Congenit Heart Dis; 2011; 6(3):266-8. PubMed ID: 21410652.
    Abstract:
    Valve thrombosis is a potentially dangerous complication for right sided prosthetic valves in adults with congenital heart disease. Thrombolytic therapy is an important alternative to surgery and may be of benefit in patients with a history of multiple surgical interventions. We present two cases of successful thrombolytic therapy for right sided valve thrombosis in patients with congenital heart disease.
