    Author: Grobéty M, Venetz JP, Genton CL, Nicod P.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1995 Sep 09; 125(36):1679-83. PubMed ID: 7481622.
    Abstract:
    Intravascular hemolysis is a rare complication following valvular replacement, particularly with bioprostheses. It is generally secondary to prosthetic malfunction and is the cause of anemia. We report a rare case of acute renal insufficiency and severe hemolysis caused by malfunction of a bioprosthesis in the mitral position.
