Chiari networks are present in the right atrium in a minority of the population and are usually of no clinical significance.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We present the case of a 62-year-old man with infectious endocarditis in a Chiari network. Chiari networks are present in 1.5% to 3% of the population.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A Chiari's network, noted in approximately 2% of the general population, is a congenital remnant of the sinus venosum valve present in the right atrium.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In this presented case, the Chiari network displayed a protective function, but the expansion and organization of the thromboembolus caught there made it resistant to lytic therapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We present three consecutive cases of Chiari network found in the presence of abnormal interatrial conduction (P-waves or 110 ms), which is a potential predictor of atrial tachyarrhythmias.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We report the case of a 41-year-old woman who presented with fever and chills. She had a history of infective endocarditis caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus a year ago.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Thisreport describes the case of a male patient with catarrhal symptoms, generalizedtenderness, and low-grade fever, diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and -throughechocardiography- a mobile, elongated mass in the right atrium.[ppct.caicyt.gov.ar]
We report the case of a 41-year-old woman who presented with fever and chills. She had a history of infective endocarditis caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus a year ago.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In congenital heartdisease cyanosis is generally due to right to left shunting through congenital cardiac defects, bypassing the pulmonary alveoli, or due to acquired intrapulmonary shunts (central cyanosis).[cachnet.org]

When the cannula is withdrawn slightly, the fibers appear snagged to its tip. The balloon is often not easily visualized because of thin wall and filling with saline/blood cardioplegia, which has similar acoustic properties to blood.[journals.lww.com]

She had a history of infective endocarditis caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcusaureus a year ago. Echocardiography did not reveal the presence of any vegetation on any of the cardiac valves.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
An 82-year-old woman with 2:1atrioventricularblock underwent a pacemaker implantation procedure, but a tined lead became entrapped by the Chiari network.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Transoesophageal echocardiogram confirmed entrapment of a thrombus within the Chiari network, which was not visualised following treatment on repeat scanning 1 month later.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Elevated pre-treatment levels of PAI-1 may reduce the efficacy of thrombolytic therapy by preventing or retarding clot dissolution.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In this presented case, the Chiari network displayed a protective function but the expansion and organisation of the thromboembolus found there made it resistant to lytic treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Following thrombolytic treatment the right atrial serpiginous thrombus and apical thrombus disappeared. The patient was discharged 10 days later in excellent general condition on oral anticoagulant treatment.[heart.bmj.com]
Differentetiological entities were proposed, and finally heparin treatment was started,which resolved the mass with persistence of a filamentous structure consistentwith Chiari s network.[ppct.caicyt.gov.ar]
Treatment and prognosis A cor triatriatum is usually fatal within the first two years of life. The membrane can be surgically resected.[radiopaedia.org]

Without argument, paradoxical embolism, defined as an arterial embolic event without evidence of a left-sided source, is one possible etiology for cryptogenic stroke.[citoday.com]

Although the paradoxical embolism following Chiari network is uncommon, the characteristics of the Chiari network described here might explain the pathophysiology of a paradoxical embolism [4]. Also, how to deal with Chiari network is controversial.[oatext.com]
The network perhaps functioned as an inferior vena cava filter preventing massive pulmonary embolus.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Here the authors describe how the Chiari network may have prevented the occurrence of a fatal massive pulmonary embolism in a patient with a high pro-thrombotic tendency, and review the current literature regarding the action of this anatomic variant[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Elevated pre-treatment levels of PAI-1 may reduce the efficacy of thrombolytic therapy by preventing or retarding clot dissolution.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Tines equipped near the tip of a pacemaker lead are intended to prevent dislodgment, but entrapment of the tined tip by intracardiac structures is probable.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Also preventing from right atrium catheter implantation, pace wire lead insertion and CPB cannulation are related to Chiari network [12-14]. In thrombophilia it acts such as inferior vena cava filter and prevents emboli [15].[oatext.com]
