TL;DRAbstract
Hypercoagulable states are highly prevalent in patients with recurrent thrombosis of MHV. All patients evaluated for therapy of obstructive thrombosis of MHV should be investigated for hypercoagulable state. Moreover, in high-risk patients, surgical replacement of the MHV with a bioprosthesis should be considered.
