  Our case indicates that emergent surgical removal of the large left atrial mural thrombus should be done immediately after the diagnosis and we consider this approach for the best treatment at the time. [ispub.com]

  Although apparently no mural thrombus existed in the LA and the LABT had a smooth surface, it is undeniable that some pieces of fresh thrombi were detached from its surface and were carried as throm- boemboli during the operation. [docslide.com.br]
