A Rare Cardiac Mass: Late Diagnosis of a Giant İntracardiac Thrombus
Öz
Atrial masses are rarely seen and sometimes large thrombus could be mixed with cardiac tumors.
Intracardiac thrombus produces different symptoms according to the localization; when the thrombus is
localized in the right atrium, it causes pulmonary embolism, and when it is localized in the left atrium, it
causes peripheral arterial embolism, stroke, and even death. A 56-year-old female patient was operated on
with an initial diagnosis of a cardiac tumor. However,the neoplastic growth was not detected in the
histopathological examination of the mass and the removed tissue was fibroblastic connective tissue, which
developed secondary to the thrombus.
