Abstract

Since the emergence of revascularisation for the treatment of myocardial infarction (MI), the incidence of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) has been declining. However, despite this, it is independently associated with increased morbidity and mortality rates. The mainstay of treatment is vitamin K antagonists, although non-vitamin K antagonists have been shown to be effective. Imaging plays an important role in the surveillance of LVT subsequent to MI. Herein, we emphasise the utility of multimodality imaging of a case of anterior MI complicated by a large LVT, and detail its management.
