Abstract

Thrombus development in cardiac chambers increases the risk of mortality, compared to pulmonary embolism alone, and can require change in therapy. In the presence of patent foramen ovale, paradoxical systemic embolization can occur associated with a higher incidence of death and embolic complications. Herein, we present a case of pulmonary embolism concomitant a right atrial huge thrombus entrapped in patent foramen ovale and prolapsing into the left heart chambers.

Özet

Kalp boşluklarında trombüs gelişimi, tek başına pulmoner emboli ile karşılaştırıldığında, mortalite riskini artırır ve tedavi değişikliğine yol açabilir. Patent foramen ovale varlığında, yüksek emboli komplikasyonu ve ölüm sıklığı ile ilişkili sistemik paradoksal emboli gerçekleşebilmektedir. Bu yazıda, patent foramen ovaleye tuzaklanmış ve sol kalp boşluklarına sarkan sağ atriyal büyük trombüsün eşlik ettiği pulmoner emboli olgusu sunuldu.
