[Left ventricular thrombosis with acute myocardial infarction: morphologic aspects indicative of an elevated embolic risk].
In this study the authors evaluate the potentiality of two-dimensional echocardiography to detect the left ventricular thrombus in the myocardial infarction. The authors emphasize the morphological echocardiographic patterns suggestive of the high embolic risk of the ventricular thrombus.
