PMID: 29457059
JA Clin Rep. 2017;3(1):15. doi: 10.1186/s40981-017-0086-5. Epub 2017 Apr 17.

Acute bioprosthetic valve thrombosis can occur after surgery and sometimes cause hemodynamic instability and cardiogenic shock. Risk factors for bioprosthetic valve thrombosis are hypercoagulability, atrial fibrillation, atrial dilatation, low cardiac function, and lack of anticoagulation therapy. The authors present...

BACKGROUND: Sugammadex has been reported to cause upper-airway obstruction, such as laryngospasm or bronchospasm. These two conditions are treated using different approaches, but the differential diagnosis is difficult.CASE PRESENTATION: We describe a case in which general anesthesia was administered...

Successful pulmonary embolectomy for massive pulmonary embolism during pregnancy: a case report.

JA clinical reports
