| Core Tip |
Patients with congenital heart disease such as levo-transposition of the great arteries experience progressive cardiac dysfunction and remodeling which manifests as heart failure. This predisposes patients to the formation of intracardiac thrombus (ICT). We present a case of progressive systemic right ventricle (sRV) dysfunction resulting in an apical thrombus. Review of literature identified no cases of sRV thrombus making this one of the first reports. Guidelines do not exist for anticoagulation in patients with congenital heart disease and ICT. Therefore, clinical decisions are extrapolated from anticoagulation principles in patients without congenital heart disease. Considerations for direct oral anticoagulants in this population should be individualized and involve shared decision making. |
