  • Title: [Post-infarction thrombosis of the right ventricle].
    Author: Barbero JM, Barroso JL, Pisaca JC, Márquez L, García-Cosío F.
    Journal: Rev Esp Cardiol; 1989 Nov; 42(9):620-3. PubMed ID: 2616846.
    Abstract:
    Right ventricular mural thrombosis is not commonly detected and in most cases is related to the use of monitoring, infusion, or pacing catheters. We report right ventricular mural thrombosis, complicated by pulmonary embolism, in 2 cases of inferior wall myocardial infarction with right ventricular involvement. None of the patients had been monitored by means of right ventricular catheterization. Bidimensional echocardiography allowed visualization of the thrombi, and demonstrated their resolution after anticoagulant treatment.
