A case of thrombosed and infarcted left atrial appendage is presented. These findings occurred in a 28-day-old infant who died of pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae. Congenital abnormalities of the atrial appendages including hypoplasia, right and left isomerism and juxtapositions, and aneurysmal dilatations with and without pericardial defects are relatively uncommon. Acquired defects are also uncommon, and are often iatrogenic in nature. This report describes the case of a thrombosed and infarcted left atrial appendage in a 28-day-old infant.
