Résumé
Hemolytic anemia is an uncommon complication after mitral valve repair. We present a case of a 55-year-old man who presented with post-operative hemolytic anemia after mitral valve repair with prosthetic ring. The hemolytic anemia improved after the patient had the prosthetic ring removed and the valve replaced by a prosthetic mitral valve. However, the post-operative course of the redo operation was complicated by acute renal failure and respiratory dysfunction, but the hemolytic anemia was finally abolished and the patient was discharged 20 days post-operatively in good condition.
