Cardiac function has long been known to be altered in patients with thyrotoxicosis and atrial fibrillation occurs in patients with hyperthyroidism. In addition to its disabling symptoms, atrial fibrillation is a strong risk factor for systemic embolism, especially with regard to cerebral circulation. A right atrial appendage thrombus formation in atrial fibrillation is a rare phenomenon. In this report, we describe a case of a 30-year-old female, who suffered from hyperthyroidism and subsequently developed atrial fibrillation and a right atrial appendage thrombus with infarction of right atrial appendage.
长期以来，人们已知甲状腺毒症患者的心脏功能会发生改变，且甲状腺功能亢进患者会出现心房颤动。除了其致残症状外，心房颤动是全身栓塞的一个重要危险因素，尤其是在脑循环方面。心房颤动时右心耳血栓形成是一种罕见现象。在本报告中，我们描述了一例30岁女性患者，她患有甲状腺功能亢进症，随后发展为心房颤动和右心耳血栓，并伴有右心耳梗死。
