case_images: An echocardiogram color Doppler carried out after thrombolisis showed a marked reduction in transvalvular prosthetic gradient (DeltaP medium 5 mmHg) confirmed by a transoesophageal echocardiography (fig. 4) that pointed out a resolution of the thrombotic image but evidenced the presence of two filaments moving towards the atrial side.
