We report the usefulness of Doppler color echocardiography in diagnosis and follow-up in a case of thrombosis of a prosthetic mitral valve. The patient received thrombolytic therapy for this disorder and a favorable clinical outcome was observed. Integrated echocardiographic techniques (M-Mode, cross-sectional, continuous-wave, pulsed-Doppler and color Doppler) could increase the amount of diagnostic information in these situations.
