| Core Tip |
Embolism in vital organs (brain, mesenteric artery, etc.) caused by detachment of a left ventricular thrombosis (LVT) can lead to catastrophic consequences. We report a case of explosive myocarditis in which a LVT was attached to the papillary muscle root of the mitral valve, which resulted in massive cerebral emboli. Although a "wait and see" strategy can be adopted considering the autolytic rate of LVT and the fatal complications associated with thrombolysis and surgical thrombectomy, more aggressive treatment methods should be adopted for left ventricular thrombi with high mobility, such as transcatheter left ventricular thrombolysis or surgical thrombectomy. |
