Right ventricular thrombosis

Y Kawamura, Y Nakamura and S Handa

We report a case of right ventricular obliteration and tricuspid obstruction by organized thrombi. Thrombectomy relieved the tricuspid obstruction, and the sign of right heart failure was alleviated; however, the movement of the right ventricular wall remained poor, and right atrial contraction played the main role in ejecting blood into the pulmonary artery.
