We report a 63 year-old female with a pulmonary embolism in whom echocardiography revealed the presence of right heart thrombus. A section of this thrombus was entrapped in a patent foramen oval and floating in both atria. This rare situation, named impending paradoxical embolism, prompted us to perform a surgical intervention, removing the thrombus and repairing the foramen ovale.
我们报告了一名63岁患有肺栓塞的女性,其超声心动图显示存在右心血栓。该血栓的一部分被困在卵圆孔未闭中,并在两个心房内漂浮。这种罕见的情况,称为即将发生的反常栓塞,促使我们进行手术干预,清除血栓并修复卵圆孔。
