Abstract
While large left atrial mural thrombi are frequently occurred in moderate and severe mitral stenosis, left atrial thrombi are rarely seen in mild mitral stenosis. In this report we presented a case of 71-year-old woman with rheumatic mild mitral valve stenosis but had a giant left atrial thrombus derected by echocardiography.
Özet
Orta ve ileri mitral darlığında büyük sol atriyal trombüs sık görülmekte iken hafif mitral darlığında sol atriyal trombüs nadirdir.Bu makalede, biz 71 yaşında bir bayanda hafif romatizmal mitral darlığı olmasına rağmen ekokardiyografi ile sol atriyumda dev trombüs tespit edilen bir olgu sunduk.
