Abstract

This report describes a rare case of right atrial thrombus (associated with spinal surgery) resulting in pulmonary embolization during transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) examination. A 50-year-old female who had recently undergone spinal surgery was admitted because of syncope. Transthoracicechocardiography (TTE) reveald a mobile mass in the right atrium prolapsing into the right ventricle. During esophageal intubation of the TEE probe, the patient complained of sudden distress and TEE showed that mass in the right atrium had disappeared. Ventilation-perfusion lung scan confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. She was treated successfully with intravenous heparin without any complication and recurrence.

Özet

Bu vaka spinal cerrahi sonrası gelişen sağ atriyal trombüsün transözofajiyal ekokardiyografi (TEE) inceleme esnasında embolizasyonunu rapor etmektedir. 50 yaşındaki kadın hasta spinal cerrahi sonrası gelişen senkop atağı nedeniyle ileri tetkik ve tedavi amacıyla yatırıldı. Transtorasik ekokardiyografik incelemede sağ atriyumda hareketli, sağ ventriküle prolabe kitle gözlendi. Daha ileri inceleme için aynı seansta hastaya TEE uygulaması planlandı. Özofajiyal entübasyon esnasında hasta ani sıkıntı ve fenalık hissinden yakındı. Hemen yapılan TEE incelemede sağ atriyal kitlenin kaybolduğu tespit edildi. Akut dönemde ve izlemlerinde hemodinamik olarak stabil seyreden hastaya hastane içi dönemde yapılan ventilasyon-perfüzyon sintigrafisinde pulmoner emboli tanısı doğrulandı. Yakın dönemde cerrahi anemnezi olduğundan tromboliz uygulanmayan hasta parenteral heparin ile başarı ile tedavi edilip taburcu edildi.
