Intra cardiac thrombosis associated with factor V (1691 G-A ) mutation ( A case report )

Abstract

Right heart thrombi occur rarely in the pediatric age group. We present a child with a right ventricular thrombus, diagnosed by cross sectional echocardiography who inherited FV 1691 G-A mutation. To our knowledge, intracardiac thrombosis due to the Factor V gene 1691 G-A mutation has not been reported yet. Therefore, this mutation should be investigated in all cases of intracardiac thrombosis.
