Embolic thrombus on mitral anulus calcification (MAC) was demonstrated in an 83-year-old woman with retinal embolism. Mitral anulus calcification has been associated with a significant increase of stroke in elderly people. Atrial fibrillation and calcific emboli have been reported, and embolic thrombus by MAC may be another potential cause.
一名83岁患有视网膜栓塞的女性患者被证实二尖瓣环钙化(MAC)处存在栓塞性血栓。二尖瓣环钙化与老年人中风风险显著增加有关。已有心房颤动和钙化栓子的报道,而MAC导致的栓塞性血栓可能是另一个潜在原因。
