The SARS-CoV2 virus has been an emerging virus since December 2019 and is the cause of a global pandemic whose clinical manifestations extend far beyond respiratory disease.
A patient with severe coronavirus disease 2019 respiratory infection, carrying a mechanical mitral valve and under anticoagulation, was admitted to our cardiology department because of a new atrial fibrillation, which turned out to be related to thrombosis of the mitral mechanical valve.
The pro-coagulant effect of the SARS-CoV2 virus does not spare patients at risk of thrombosis, even under effective anticoagulation. In patients with mechanical valves under vitamin K antagonist treatment, there is a high risk of thrombus formation. The treatment is based on thrombolysis by therapeutic anticoagulation, fibrinolysis, or surgery depending on the size, composition of thrombus, and clinical manifestation.
自2019年12月以来,严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)一直是一种新出现的病毒,它是一场全球大流行疾病的病原体,其临床表现远远超出呼吸道疾病范畴。
一名患有2019冠状病毒病严重呼吸道感染、携带机械二尖瓣且正在接受抗凝治疗的患者,因新发心房颤动入住我们的心脏病科,结果发现这与二尖瓣机械瓣血栓形成有关。
SARS-CoV-2病毒的促凝作用不放过有血栓形成风险的患者,即使在有效的抗凝治疗下也是如此。在接受维生素K拮抗剂治疗的机械瓣患者中,血栓形成风险很高。治疗方法根据血栓大小、成分和临床表现,基于治疗性抗凝、纤维蛋白溶解或手术进行溶栓。
