Abstract:Pregnancy due to its physiological changes is a procoagulant state. The rate of cardiac valve prosthesis thrombosis, deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are all increased. Thrombolytic therapy with tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is an approved therapy for ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism and thrombosis of cardiac valve prosthesis. However, there are no data from controlled randomized trials in pregnant patients. Thrombolytic therapy has been rarely used in pregnancy wi… Show more
“…6,9 Spontaneous abortion rate (8-20%) associated with thrombolytic therapy is almost similar or only slightly higher than that in the general population. 2, 7 No permanent sequelae in surviving children have been reported. 7 There is an association between increasing lytic therapy complications and the severity of heart failure symptoms.…”

“…The rate of prosthetic valve thrombosis (incidence 4-14%), deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are increased. 7 For patients with a mechanical prosthetic valve, the incidence of thromboembolism during pregnancy is estimated from 7 to 23% with maximum episodes (50%) in the first trimester, as compared to 14% in the second trimester and 36 % in the third trimester; leading to maternal mortality of 2-15% in different clinical groups. 2,4, 6 The risk is increased due to the hypercoagulable state related to pregnancy, failure to continue Coumadin or due to switch-over to heparin.…”
Prosthetic heart valve thrombosis during pregnancy is life-threatening. Standard surgical treatment using cardiopulmonary bypass carries high maternal and fetal complications. Here we report a case of an antenatal female in first trimester with aortic prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT), who was successfully thrombolysed with streptokinase with no complication to mother or fetus. The aim was to justify the usefulness of thrombolysis as a treatment option for prosthetic valve thrombosis in antenatal patients. A 35-year-old female patient presented in the first trimester of pregnancy with PVT at aortic position. After due consent, thrombolysis was undertaken with streptokinase. During the hospital course, she was followed clinically and with echocardiography. She symptomatically improved with thrombolysis. Transthoracic echocardiography showed complete resolution of thrombus. Peak trans-aortic velocity improved from 5.5 m/s to 3.7 m/s. She delivered a normal baby uneventfully in follow up at full term of pregnancy with no complications. Fibrinolytic therapy for mechanical valve thrombosis is a reasonable alternative to surgery in first trimester of pregnancy.

“…Клини-ческая оценка состояния больной и стратификация рис-ков по результатам объективных методов исследования явились основанием для тромболитической терапии. При выборе тактики лечения учитывали, что тканевые активаторы плазминогена не проникают через плаценту и не имеют тератогенного эффекта, а также что частота осложнений при данном методе лечения не превышает результаты крупных рандомизированных исследований в обычной популяции [7,10].…”
Мы представляем клинический случай успешного системного тромболизиса у беременной пациентки с массивной тромбоэмбо-лией легочной артерии. Больная 29 лет со сроком беременности 28 нед. госпитализирована через 2 ч с момента внезапно возник-шего удушья, пресинкопального состояния. Отмечена гипотония до 90/50 мм рт. ст. На электрокардиограмме регистрировались признаки перегрузки правых камер сердца в виде типичного синдрома S1 -Q3 -T3 (Мак-Джина -Уайта) и признака Косуге. По данным эхокардиоскопии верифицированы легочная гипертензия 3-й ст. (81 мм рт. ст.), увеличение правого предсердия и желудочка, трикуспидальная регургитация 3-й ст. По результатам мультиспиральной компьютерной томографии органов груд-ной полости с контрастированием легочной артерии выявлены дефект контрастирования правой главной легочной артерии, ок-клюзирующий просвет и тромботические массы, распространяющиеся на бифуркацию левой главной легочной артерии («тромб-наездник»). Начата тромболитическая терапия рекомбинантным тканевым активатором плазминогена (алтеплаза 10 мг болюсно, затем 90 мг в течение 2 ч). Пациентка ежедневно осматривалась гинекологом, оценивалась жизнеспособность плода, контроль за возможными геморрагическими осложнениями со стороны плаценты. Уже по окончании тромболизиса пациентка отмечала кли-ническое улучшение в виде регресса одышки. По данным контрольной эхокардиоскопии, признаки перегрузки правых камер сер-дца полностью регрессировали. Осложнений ни у матери, ни у плода в последующие дни до выписки не было. Неосложненные роды 25.05.16 через естественные родовые пути живой доношенной девочкой. Таким образом, при жизнеугрожающей массив-ной тромбоэмболии легочной артерии применение общих принципов диагностики и лечения данного заболевания у пациенток с беременностью является оправданным. Проведение тромболизиса при массивной тромбоэмболии легочной артерии позволяет уменьшить проявления легочной гипертензии, правожелудочковой недостаточности, провести роды в срок. Используемые тром-болитические препараты не имеют тератогенного эффекта на поздних сроках беременности.Ключевые слова массивная тромбоэмболия легочной артерии; беременность; тромболизис; алтеплаза Как цитировать: Тюкачев В.Е., Окс Д.А., Бутылкин А.А.

“…4) Some mechanisms are also explained with Virchow's classic triad of factors underlying venous thrombosis; hypercoagulability, venous stasis, and vascular damage. 9) We therefore considered that resolving the pregnancy as soon as possible would be very important for improving the hypercoagulability stage and for recovery of her general condition.…”
SUMMARYWe report a rescued 37-year-old woman in her 30 th week of gestation with massive pulmonary thromboembolism who was admitted to our cardiac care unit with progressive dyspnea and 2 episodes of syncope. Helical chest CT showed massive pulmonary thromboembolism of both pulmonary arteries. Although 26,000 U/day of heparin was administered following insertion of a temporary filter, hemodynamic evaluation documented no improvement. Since pulmonary artery (PA) pressure increased from 62/22 mmHg to 80/ 24 mmHg just after an emergency cesarean section on day 2, an emergency transcatheter thrombectomy was performed and it showed decreased PA pressure following extensive thrombus aspiration. Mother and baby were discharged with no complications.(Int Heart J 2007; 48: [269][270][271][272][273][274][275][276]
