Conclusions
due to the concerns around the
COVID-19 pandemic era, misdiagnosis can occur in cardiovascular
disorders with COVID-19 infection. In this case, the attempt to be alert
in the diagnosis and empiric treatment of COVID-19, resulted in the
misdiagnosis. Even though the CT scan and RT-PCR results showed no
evidence in the favor of COVID-19, the symptoms of the patient and the
TEE results were thought to be related to the thrombosis of the
prosthetic valve caused by the infection. Although we need to be
vigilant in the diagnosis of COVID-19, we should not forget about the
other possible disorders.
