The patient was referred to the emergency department experiencing shortness of breath and fatigue, which improved after furosemide administration, and remaining stable throughout hospitalization. A transesophageal echocardiogram was performed the following day and revealed a biologic mitral valve prosthesis slightly displaced toward the left ventricle with an average transprosthetic gradient of 7 mmHg.
