The antithrombotic management of patients after surgical or transcatheter bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) replacement is still challenging. Our review aims to describe the current evidence on the best antithrombotic strategy among patients undergoing BHVs replacement (surgical or transcatheter) and/or valve repair, with particular attention to those with atrial fibrillation.
