Abstract
Report of a case of obstructive dysfunction of a tricuspid Starr-Edwards (6120) ball prosthesis, diagnosed on phonocardiographic (PCG) diastolic anomalies with abnormal diastolic pattern of the jugular pulse, abnormal jugular flow velocity curve, and confirmed by cinefluoroscopy. The thrombotic origin of the obstruction was assessed on the regression of PCG and cinefluoroscopic anomalies under fibrinolytic therapy.
