Popis: |
Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) is characterized by the deposition of thrombi on cardiac valves in the absence of bloodstream bacterial infection. It is usually associated with advanced stage malignancy and chronic debilitating diseases. We present an autopsy case report of a 45-year-old man with NBTE in association with metastatic mucin-secreting adenocarcinoma involving the heart. |
