  • Title: [Biventricular thrombosis in nephrotic syndrome with hypercoagulability and hypereosinophilia].
    Author: Danchin N, Neimann JL, Hurault de Ligny B, Godenir JP, Morel O, Kessler M, Cherrier F.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1985 Feb; 78(2):271-4. PubMed ID: 3920999.
    Abstract:
    A case of double right and left intraventricular thrombosis diagnosed by 2D echocardiography is reported in a 20 year old man with nephrotic syndrome with eosinophilia and hypercoagulability, admitted as an emergency for a staphylococcal septicaemia in shock and anuria. Anticoagulation with heparin did not prevent two episodes of pulmonary embolism. Complete dissolution of the thrombi was obtained by peripheral administration of fibrinolytic therapy (urokinase and plasminogen). The authors discuss the differential diagnosis of echocardiographic appearances of biventricular masses and possible causes of these thrombi are suggested.
