From swirling to a mobile, pedunculated mass--the evolution of left ventricular thrombus despite full anticoagulation. Echocardiographic demonstration.
We describe the unusual evolution of a left ventricular thrombus following acute anterior myocardial infarction despite adequate anticoagulation. Serial echocardiographic examinations demonstrated the evolution from swirling in the left ventricle through a solid apical mass gradually dislodging into a mobile, pedunculated mass that was removed surgically to prevent embolization. This report emp...
متن کاملA giant left ventricular thrombus: a shrimp in the heart
Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) is an often-seen complication of acute myocardial infarction, and usually develops within the first 2 weeks. Although, novel therapies such as percutaneous coronary intervention and fibrinolysis have reduced frequency of LVT, it is still a major life-threatening problem, as it may lead to arterial embolic complications like stroke. In general, it is suggested tha...
متن کاملSuccessful Medical Management of a Left Ventricular Thrombus and Aneurysm Following Failed Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction
We report the case of a patient with an extensive anterior myocardial infarction complicated by left ventricular systolic dysfunction, left ventricular apical thrombus and an apical left ventricular aneurysm following failed thrombolysis. We obtained serial two-dimensional echocardiograms at short intervals in the acute phase and also during the months of recovery and follow up. The patient was...

Background: Cardiovascular problems including arterial hypertension, coronary artery diseases, congestive heart failure are prevalent among chronic hemodialyzed patients. Ultrafiltration of hemodialyzed patient's serum, which culminating in intravascular volume reduction, is frequently used during hemodialysis. One of the restrictions of the echocardiographic evaluation of the diastolic heart f...
متن کاملThe natural history of left ventricular thrombus in myocardial infarction: a rationale in support of masterly inactivity.
One hundred five unselected and consecutive patients were prospectively studies after acute transmural myocardial infarction to assess the incidence of mural thrombus formation and to relate the presence of thrombus to patient outcome in terms of systemic embolic events, functional class and survival. In 87 patients, optimal quality two-dimensional echocardiographic studies were obtained and we...

Background: Cardiotoxicity of anthracyclines (ANTs) in medium and high doses (more than 350 mg/m2) has been already known but it is still unclear whether or not minimal doses (lower than 350 mg/m2) can also affect cardiac function. The goal of this study was to assess the cardiotoxicity of ANTs in children under minimal doses and evaluation the association of this toxicity with probable risk fa...
