Right atrial thrombus complicating a right-sided arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy

J Clin Ultrasound. 2021 Sep;49(7):674-677. doi: 10.1002/jcu.22966. Epub 2020 Dec 29.

Abstract

There are few studies in the literature about arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy complicated with right atrial thrombus. We report a case of right atrial thrombus complicating a right-sided arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy detected by echocardiography. Electrocardiography showed typical Epsilon waves, and the diagnosis was further confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Keywords: arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy; echocardiography; electrocardiography; magnetic resonance imaging; right atrium; thrombus.
