Abstract:
Heyde syndrome is characterized by the association between aortic stenosis and gastrointestinal bleeding. This report examines two cases of Heyde syndrome in elderly females who experience bleeding recurrence within months following aortic valve replacement (AVR). The discussion highlights the controversies surrounding the optimal management of Heyde syndrome, particularly in the context of AVR type (surgical vs. transcatheter) and postoperative complications. The report underscores the need for a multidisciplinary approach to Heyde syndrome management and the importance of individualized treatment strategies considering patient-specific factors such as lesion location and postoperative complications.

Disorders of Hemostasis
Thromboembolic Disorders
Two factors primarily cause thromboembolic conditions.
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which...
Introduction to Hemostasis
The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized,...

Disorders of Erythrocytes
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
On the other...
