Abstract
- A 75‐year‐old lady came to emergency room due to dizziness and presyncopal attacks during exertion since two days prior to admission. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a thrombus like mass in right atrium traversing patent foramen ovale and extending to left atrium. Spiral chest CT scan showed bilateral pulmonary thromboemboli. Operative and pathological findings confirmed the diagnosis. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
