Abstract: rheumatic valve disease affects 33 million people, mainly distributed in low- and middle-income countries. The different pathophysiological mechanisms of the disease - especially in rheumatic mitral stenosis - determine a close relationship with the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) as a complication, present in up to 22% of cases. In patients with AF and rheumatic heart valve disease, the risk of stroke increases 20 times compared to the general population, making anticoagulation for thromboembolic prevention mandatory. This high risk of stroke has been the reason for the systematic exclusion of moderate or severe mitral stenosis, rheumatic origin and mechanical heart valve in the various pivotal trials that demonstrated non-inferiority in stroke prevention efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) versus vitamin K antagonists, and their lower risk of major bleeding. To date, the evidence for the use of DOACs in these entities has been sparse, and the indication for VKA as standard treatment has been based on expert opinion. The INVICTUS clinical trial has emerged as the most powerful study on the use of DOACs in patients with rheumatic heart valve disease and AF. The demonstration of the superiority of VKA in reducing the risk of stroke and mortality – and an equal risk for major bleeding - endorses the non indication of DOACs in rheumatic valve disease and AF, thus raising the level of evidence to "B", and the use of VKA as standard treatment
