pubmed:abstractText |
Embolic complications due to prosthetic heart valves are common. The present report documents a left main coronary artery thrombus extending from a Starr Edward's aortic ball valve prosthesis 22 years after its placement. It resulted in unstable angina and a small myocardial infarction. This rare complication illustrates the importance of adequate anticoagulation.
