5 mar 2024 · Left ventricular (LV) thrombus may develop after acute myocardial infarction (MI) and occurs most often with a large, anterior ST-elevation MI (STEMI). However, the use of reperfusion therapies, including percutaneous coronary intervention and fibrinolysis, has significantly reduced the risk.
These embolic complications could occur at any time under antithrombotic therapy, as a consequence of thrombus fragmentation, quick thrombus regression, or on the contrary, persistence of the thrombus.
Left ventricular (LV) thrombus is a feared complication of LV dysfunction associated with high rates of systemic embolism, morbidity, and mortality. Traditionally, LV thrombus has been associated with acute myocardial infarction (MI).
23 wrz 2022 · On the basis of limited data, patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy with LV thrombus should be treated with OAC for at least 3–6 months, with discontinuation if LV ejection fraction improves to >35% (assuming resolution of the LV thrombus) or if major bleeding occurs.
4 paź 2022 · We report a rare case of a 74-year-old woman with a combination of pathologies due to a massive thrombus in the left ventricle including acute peripheral ischemia, cardiac decompensation, and combined valve pathology, treated successfully via a left ventricular apical approach.
7 kwi 2020 · Results: The authors identified 159 patients with confirmed LV thrombus. These patients were treated with vitamin K antagonists (48.4%), parenteral heparin (27.7%), or direct oral anticoagulants (22.6%). Antiplatelet therapy was used in 67.9% of cases.
