title: [Biatrial thrombosis].
abstract: A fifty-eight year old patient presented subacute right heart failure. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography revealed thrombi in both atria, and initial anticoagulation and subsequent surgical treatment were successful. Echocardiography is defined as being decisive to diagnosis, and the role of surgery in the treatment of these patients is commented.
