Abstract

Incidence of post-infarction left ventricular (LV) thrombus is reduced by modern methods of revascularization and treatment with intensive antithrombotic agents. LV thrombus may be an important cause of morbidity and mortality due to relatively high risk of embolization. Therefore, the diagnosis and appropriate management is crucial. The paper introduces a successful treatment of massive, mobile LV thrombus originating from the apical aneurysm and extending to the left ventricular outflow tract.
