Colossal left ventricular apical thrombus
Abstract
Key Clinical Message Left ventricular apical thrombus is a known complication following an anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction. Although left ventriculography may suggest an apical thrombus in the presence of a filling defect, additional imaging with echocardiography and/or cardiac magnetic resonance is strongly recommended to further characterize the thrombus post myocardial infarction.
