Genç hastada sessiz enfarkt sonrası sol ventrikül apikal dev mobil trombüs: Olgu sunumu

Günümüzde perkütan koroner girişimler ve antikoagülan terapilerin dünya çapında yaygın kullanımı nedeniyle sol ventrikülde trombüs oluşma insidansı geçmişe göre daha azdır. Modern metodlara rağmen, özellikle sessiz enfarktlardan sonra olan ve geniş bir hasta popülasyonunda mortalite ve morbidite ile sonuçlanan tromboembolik komplikasyonlar ile karşılaşmaktayız. Yüksek emboli riski nedeniyle sol ventrikül trombüslerinin erken teşhisi kritik önem taşımaktadır. Sol ön inen koroner arterin total tıkanmasına bağlı sessiz enfarkt sonrası sol ventrikül apikal kısımda büyük, fragmante, ileri derecede mobil trombüs tanısı koyduğumuz ilginç ve nadir görülen 34 yaşındaki vakayı sunmaktayız. 

Giant mobile left ventricular apical thrombus following silent infarction in a young patient: A case report

Today, percutaneous coronary treatment and anticoagulation therapies are commonly used worldwide, which is why the incidence of reported left ventricular (LV) thrombus decreased. Despite modern methods, we still encounter thromboembolic complications resulting in morbidity and mortality in a large number of patients, especially after silent infarctions. Because of high embolism risk, early detection of LV thrombus is crucial. We present the rare and interesting case of a 34-year-old patient diagnosed with a large, fragmented, very mobile left ventricular apical thrombus after silent myocardial infarction due to total occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery.
