BPVT can be accurately diagnosed with cardiac imaging and treated successfully with anticoagulation, thus preventing reoperation. We hereby report a case of recurrent BPVT in the mitral position successfully treated with anticoagulation along with review of literature. To evaluate whether smoking cessation has an effect on female sexual function and quality of life. After approval by the local ethics committee, smoking and non-smoking female participants were included in the study and all participants filled the female sexual function index (FSFI) and the short form 36 (SF-36). The same questionnaires were filled again at the ninth month control after smoking cessation. The scores of these questionnaires were compared between the groups. In addition, the FSFI and SF-36 scores of the participants in the smoking group were also compared with the scores in the ninth month after smoking cessation. The rate of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) was significantly higher in the smoking group when compared with the control group (86.0% vs 32.5%; P<0,001). The FSFI total and sub-domains score was significantly lower in the smoking group when compared control group [21.5 (min14.4-max28.69) and 28.9 (min17.7-max32.8); P<.001, respectively]. The rate of FSD was significantly decreased after nine months of smoking cessation (86% to 35.1%; P<.001). After smoking cessation, significant improvements on FSFI total and sub-domain scores and SF-36 sub-domain scores were determined. In this study, it was shown that smoking negatively affected FSD and QOL when compared with healthy non-smoking women, and smoking cessation caused significant improvements in FSFI and SF-36 scores in these women after 9months. In this study, it was shown that smoking negatively affected FSD and QOL when compared with healthy non-smoking women, and
