Giant left ventricular thrombus after radiofrequency ablation of post-infarction ventricular tachycardia: what to do?
Statistics from Altmetric.com
A left ventricular (LV) thrombus may develop as a complication of acute myocardial infarction, ventricular aneurysm, dilated cardiomyopathy, tako-tsubo transient apical ballooning, and myocarditis. Giant LV thrombi are extremely rare and have not been previously described following radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA). We present a case of a giant LV thrombus developing late after an RFCA procedure for ventricular tachycardia in a patient with a …
