A case of a 62 year-old woman with mitral stenosis and thrombosis of the left atrium diagnosed by two-dimensional echocardiography (2D-Echo) is reported. During the procedure, postural changes were performed and characterized the thrombus as floating one. The postural changes during 2D-echo examination allows differential diagnosis among fixed and free floating atrial thrombus. Such postural manoeuvres are also important in evaluating prognosis and therapeutic management of mitral stenosis.
报告了一例62岁患有二尖瓣狭窄和左心房血栓形成的女性病例,该病例由二维超声心动图(2D-Echo)诊断。在检查过程中,进行了体位改变,并将血栓确定为漂浮血栓。二维超声心动图检查期间的体位改变有助于鉴别固定性和游离漂浮性心房血栓。这种体位操作对于评估二尖瓣狭窄的预后和治疗管理也很重要。
