This case report describes a patient with pulmonary embolism (PE) in whom transesophageal echocardiography showed a thrombus in the right atrium attached to the eustachian valve (EV). The EV is typically absent in the adult, but when present it is considered to be benign. It is an uncommon site for thrombus formation. This patient was treated with systemic anticoagulation.
本病例报告描述了一名患有肺栓塞(PE)的患者,经食管超声心动图显示右心房有一血栓附着于欧氏瓣(EV)。欧氏瓣在成年人中通常不存在,但如果存在则被认为是良性的。它是血栓形成的罕见部位。该患者接受了全身抗凝治疗。
