Right heart thrombus in transit is an increasingly recognized medical emergency with very high mortality rate. Echocardiography helps to establish the diagnosis and can differentiate between right heart thrombi that result from atrial fibrillation and those originating from deep venous thrombosis. We present two cases of right heart thrombus in transit diagnosed with echocardiography that were managed with different approaches.
移动性右心血栓是一种越来越被认识到的医疗急症,死亡率极高。超声心动图有助于确诊,并可区分由心房颤动导致的右心血栓和源于深静脉血栓形成的右心血栓。我们报告两例经超声心动图诊断为移动性右心血栓的病例,并采用了不同的处理方法。
