الوصف: Background/Introduction Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is an important clinical entity eventually following both bioprosthetic surgical and transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Although dynamic contrast-enhanced 4D-MDCT has improved the diagnosis of BPVT, more sensitive and pathology-specific non-invasive imaging tools are lacking. Recently, the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor targeted, elarofiban-derived PET/CT imaging radiotracer [18F]GP1 has been successfully used for visualization of acute venous and arterial thrombi. Purpose We hypothesized that [18F]GP1 PET/CT imaging is suitable to detect BPVT. Methods In this proof-of-concept study, patients after bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement with symptomatic, severe hemodynamic valve dysfunction and confirmed hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) in dynamic 4D-MDCT were offered to participate in compassionate use examinations to undergo PET/CT imaging with the investigational [18F]GP1 PET tracer at baseline and after a 12-week course of therapeutic oral anticoagulation. Results This case series reports on three patients after aortic valve replacement. Two patients with symptomatic, obstructive BPVT as confirmed by echocardiography and 4D-MDCT fulfilled specified criteria and underwent [18F]GP1 PET/CT imaging. [18F]GP1 PET/CT clearly distinguished between blood pool activity and thrombotic foci. Clot-to-blood ratios at baseline were 8.2 and 4.5, respectively. A 12-week trial of therapeutic oral anticoagulation was associated with a regression of mean transprosthetic pressure gradient and reversal of HALT. Follow-up 4D-MDCT corroborated thrombus resolution in both patients. Correspondingly, [18F]GP1 PET/CT imaging demonstrated decreased tracer uptake in both patients. Clot-to-blood ratio at follow-up visit decreased to 1.2 and 2.9, respectively. While absent tracer uptake was seen in patient #1, residual tracer uptake was observed in patient #2 suggestive of ongoing platelet aggregation. One asymptomatic SAVR patient was examined with ...
