Endocarditis trombótica no bacteriana: estudio clínico-patológico de una serie necrópsica

NBTE is an uncommon disease entity that occurs not only in patients with end-stage neoplastic disease, but also in those with potentially treatable diseases. Consequently, we should raise our level of awareness of this condition so that a diagnosis can be made before the patient dies and anticoagulant treatment can be started, thereby helping to improve prognosis.
