A right atrial thrombus caused tricuspid valve obstruction in a patient with constrictive pericarditis. Surgical thrombectomy and investigation for intra-cardiac thrombus are crucial.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Cardiac Surgery

Background:

  • Constrictive pericarditis can present with complex intracardiac complications.
  • Right atrial thrombus formation is a recognized, albeit less common, sequela.

Observation:

  • A case of right atrial thrombus causing significant tricuspid valve obstruction is presented.
  • The patient had a concurrent diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis.

Findings:

  • Surgical thrombectomy effectively relieved the tricuspid valve obstruction.
  • Diagnostic investigation was essential to rule out intracardiac thrombus in the context of constrictive pericarditis.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering intracardiac thrombus in patients with constrictive pericarditis.
