  • Title: [Right atrial masses: role of two-dimensional echocardiography in indications for emergency surgery. Description of a case of right and left atrial thromboembolism with pulmonary and paradoxical embolism].
    Author: Mazzoni V, Bini A, Giaconi A.
    Journal: G Ital Cardiol; 1990 Aug; 20(8):738-41. PubMed ID: 2272422.
    Abstract:
    Two-dimensional echocardiography is the chosen method for the detection of mobile right atrial masses. In this report we describe a case of pulmonary and paradoxical embolism in which 2D echocardiography was useful for the detection of a thromboembolus entrapped in the patent foramen ovale. The right and left atrial thromboembolus was removed surgically with success.
