Case Report: Thrombosed Mitral Leaflets in a Patient With Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Rare Clinical Case.

ABSTRACT: Rheumatic heart disease remains a significant contributor to cardiovascular morbidity. We report the case of an 82-year-old man who presented with acute right-sided hemiplegia. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed a thrombus attached to the mitral valve leaflets (MVL). Anticoagulation therapy was initiated, leading to significant thrombus resolution. It spotlights the potential efficacy of thrombolytic and anticoagulation. Committee Approval Number: IR.TBZMED.REC.1403.1018.
