Left atrial ball valve thrombus in restrictive cardiomyopathy and normal mitral valve: Loose cannon in heart.
Left atrial ball valve thrombus is an unusual condition, especially in patients with normal mitral valve. In the present case, we describe a 61-year-old female with restrictive cardiomyopathy who presented with a large left atrial ball valve thrombus, which subsequently embolized to right carotid artery and was treated with intravenous thrombolysis. This case provides useful insight into the ge...
متن کاملBall-thrombus of the right atrium.
A -study of reported cases reveals that while the occurrence of ball-thrombus of the left atrium is unusual a ball-thrombus of the right atrium is very rare indeed. The first case report is that of McLeod, in 1883, and sixty-one years elapse before the next-that of Wright, Flynn, and Druet, in 1944. Radding in America and Moia et al. in Argentina each published a report of a case in 1951, and t...
متن کاملLeft atrial ball valve thrombus. Treatable cause of clinical deterioration in a patient with mitral stenosis.
A 74 year old woman with mixed mitral valve disease presented with episodes of loss of consciousness and fainting. The attacks were noted to be closely related to posture, especially crouching, and this, with the clinical finding that the radial pulse disappeared before she lost consciousness, suggested the diagnosis of a ball valve thrombus. Cardiac catheterisation confirmed the diagnosis but ...
متن کاملRight atrial ball thrombus associated with atrial septal occluder device: A late complication of transcatheter atrial septal defect closure
In a large autopsy study, intracardiac ball thrombi are usually seen in the left atrium and rarely seen in the right atrium. They may be one or more in number. Right atrial ball thrombus may appear as a complication of central venous catheterization or be coexistent with tricuspid stenosis. A 42-year-old woman who began routine hemodialysis 5 years ago due to chronic kidney disease was admitted...
متن کاملTransient total occlusion of the mitral valve orifice by a free-floating left atrial ball thrombus.
In patients with mitral stenosis (MS), a free-floating ball thrombus in the left atrium (LA) is a very rare clinical manifestation, but has potentially catastrophic consequences such as fatal systemic emboli or total obstruction of the narrowed mitral valve orifice, often resulting in sudden death. In this report, we demonstrated a free-floating ball thrombus within the LA cavity and transient ...
