Abstract

Here we presented the case of a middle aged woman with a free floating left atrial ball thrombus. Patient was admitted to our outpatient clinic with complaints of dyspnea and fatique about a month before her operation. In her transthoracic echocardiography there were mitral stenosis and thrombus which was attached to left atrial wall (1.5x1.1 cm). The rhytm was atrial fibrillation. The patient was decided to be followed by medical treatment. She was readmitted with sudden worsening of symptoms one month later. In the transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, free floating left atrial ball thrombus was detected in size of 2.65x2.88 cm. Then, the patient was operated urgently.

Özet

Bu yazıda serbest dolaşan sol atriyal top trombusü olan orta yaşlı bir kadın olguyu sunduk. Olgu, operasyondan yaklaşık bir ay önce polikliniğimize nefes darlığı ve yorgunluk şikayeti ile başvurmuştu. Yapılan transtorasik ekokardiyografisinde mitral darlığı ve sol atriyum duvarına yapışık trombus (1.5x1.1 cm) tespit edildi. Ritmi atriyal fibrilasyon idi. Olgunun medikal tedavi ile takibine karar verildi. Bundan bir ay sonra semptomlarının şiddetlenmesi nedeniyle tekrar başvurdu. Transtorasik ve transesofageal ekokardiyografisinde 2.65x2.88 cm boyutlarında serbest dolaşan sol atriyal top trombus tespit edildi. Bunun üzerine olgu acil olarak opere edildi.
