| Core Tip |
Thrombus straddling a patent foramen ovale is a life-threatening condition which is usually complicated with pulmonary embolism. We present a rare case of deep venous thrombosis, concomitant with pulmonary embolism and transient ischemic attack. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large thrombus straddling patent foramen ovale. There was no significant predisposing factor for thromboembolism except the sedentary lifestyle on the young patient. This case highlights the crucial role of echocardiography in a patient with pulmonary embolism. Identifying intracardiac thrombi may modify the strategies of thromboembolic disease. Moreover, a vigorous lifestyle should be recommended for avoiding thrombotic disaster among young adults. |
