    Journal: Z Kardiol; 1978 Jul; 67(7):503-7. PubMed ID: 685381.
    Abstract:
    A mobile left-ventricular tumor was detected by echocardiography in a 28-years-old patient, who has sustained an anteroseptal infarction four years before. The patient was admitted to hospital because of arterial embolism. The echocardiographic finding was validated by left-ventricular angiography. In open-heart surgery a pedunculated tumor was excided, in microscopic study the tumor revealed the findings of an organized thrombus. The echocardiographic and angiographic findings are shown, the echocardiographic differential diagnosis is pointed out.
