We present a case of a thrombosed prosthetic aortic valve that failed to respond to high dose intravenous heparin therapy. Thrombolytic therapy was contraindicated because of recent surgery. The valve was effectively treated by mechanical thrombolysis following the deployment of bilateral ACCUNET Embolic Protection Systems.
