Radiopaque thrombus in right ventricle

Clinical manifestations of right ventricle involvement in inferior myocardial infarction

Abstract Background: Early diagnosis of right ventricle (RV) involvement in inferior myocardial infarction (Inf MI) is very critical. This study was performed to evaluate the clinical findings of Inf MI with or without RV infarction. Methods: From September 2010 to September 2012, 195 patients with definite diagnosis of Inf MI were evaluated in the Department of Cardiology, in Babol, north of...

A Long Right Atrial Thrombus Intermittently Prolapsing into Right Ventricle in a Patient with Recurrent Ischemic Stroke: An Image Report

A 39-year-old male was admitted for recurrent ischemic strokes. TEE was performed to detect the potential intra-cardiac thrombi and right-to-left shunts. A large hypermobile, echodense, irregular mass was found in the right atrium, which looked like a cluster of grapes. The motion of the components of the mass was synchronized, prolapsing into right ventricle in an octopus-like fashion during d...

Obstructive Thrombus in Right Atrium

Cardiac masses always represented a diagnostic challenge for clinicians. The distinction between the different types of intracardiac masses, including thrombi, vegetation and tumors, is an important step in providing therapeutic and prognostic information to the patient. Transthoracic 2D echocardiogram is the primary diagnostic tool used widely to detect and evaluate intracardiac mass and the c...

Double outlet right ventricle.

Double-chambered right ventricle.

Thirty (10.8%) of 279 patients undergoing correction of a ventricular septal defect (VSD) from January, 1972, to September, 1986, also had a double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV). Age at operation ranged from 1.3 to 18.8 years (mean, 6.7 +/- 4.5 years [+/- standard deviation]). Seventeen patients were male, and 13 were female. Two-dimensional echocardiography was used after 1978 in the initia...
