  • Title: Severe hemoglobinuria masquerading as gross hematuria following mitral valve replacement.
    Author: Lander EB.
    Journal: J Urol; 1995 May; 153(5):1639-40. PubMed ID: 7714995.
    Abstract:
    Gross hemoglobinuria following mitral valve replacement can represent a rare form of hemolytic anemia. This condition can masquerade as gross hematuria in the post-valve replacement patient. It is commonly associated with valvular dysfunction, specifically, perivalvular leakage. The leakage may not be apparent on routine echocardiography but it may be documented with trans-esophageal echocardiography.
