Left ventricular thrombus in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children associated with COVID-19.

Project description:A 17-year-old adolescent with severe multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) associated with coronavirus disease-2019 developed reduced left ventricular function and left ventricular thrombus. With treatment, his condition improved and the thrombus was dissolved. This case illustrates the risk of severe intra-cardiac thrombotic complications in patients with MIS-C.

Left ventricular thrombus in the multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children associated with COVID-19.

Project description:A 3-year-old girl presenting with fever, mucocutaneous inflammation, and acute gastrointestinal symptoms met criteria for the multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children associated with COVID-19 (MIS-C). Echocardiography showed severely decreased left ventricular (LV) function with an apical mass. After treatment with intravenous (IV) immunoglobulin, IV steroids, anakinra, milrinone, and systemic anticoagulation, her LV function rapidly improved and the mass became increasingly mobile. Given the risk of systemic embolization, the mass was excised through left ventriculotomy and pathology confirmed a thrombus.

Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Multiple Left Ventricular Thrombi and Embolic Stroke After Mild COVID-19.

Project description:COVID-19 is a novel disease with multisystem involvement, but most patients have pulmonary and cardiovascular involvement in the acute stages. The cardiovascular impact of acute COVID-19 is well recognized and ranges from myocarditis, arrhythmias, and thrombotic occlusion of coronary arteries to spontaneous coronary artery dissection and microthrombi in small coronary vessels on autopsy. We report a case of a 37-year-old man who recovered from mild COVID-19 only to present a few weeks later with devastating cardiovascular involvement that included severe left ventricular impairment resulting from nonischemic cardiomyopathy, multiple left ventricular thrombi, and embolic stroke.

Acute Myocardial Infarction Associated With a Mobile Left Ventricular Thrombi.

Project description:The majority of acute coronary syndromes are caused by coronary artery thrombotic occlusions secondary to atherosclerotic plaque erosion or rupture. Coronary embolism is an important yet forgotten underlying cause of acute coronary syndrome. We present a case of a young patient who presented with ST elevation myocardial infarction suspected to be secondary to coronary embolization originating from a left ventricular thrombus.

Multiple left ventricular thrombi in a patient with left ventricular noncompaction.

Project description:The major clinical features of myocardial noncompaction are heart failure, arrhythmias, and thromboembolic events. Prominent myocardial trabeculae and deep recesses characteristic of myocardial noncompaction can cause stagnant blood flow and the formation of left ventricular clots. We describe the case of a 62-year-old woman who presented with symptoms of heart failure secondary to left ventricular noncompaction. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography revealed multiple left ventricular thrombi, which had formed despite the patient's long-term therapy with aspirin. Anticoagulative therapy should be considered for patients with myocardial noncompaction who also have risk factors for thromboembolism, such as atrial fibrillation, a history of systemic embolism, or severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction. However, chronic antiplatelet therapy may not sufficiently prevent clot formation in patients who have myocardial noncompaction and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Left ventricular mural thrombi with multisystem thrombosis in patients with COVID-19 and myocardial injury: a case series.

Project description:BackgroundCardiovascular and thromboembolic complications have been reported in patients with Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19)-related severe respiratory distress syndrome. Although myocarditis associated with COVID-19 pneumonia has been described, evidence of left ventricular (LV) mural thrombi with other multisystem events has not been reported.Case summaryWe report two cases with severe COVID-19 pneumonia and myocardial injury with large LV thrombi and other multisystem thrombotic events. The first patient represents an unusual case of large LV apical thrombus without concordant regional wall motion abnormality and mildly reduced LV function. A subsequent inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was likely related to either an embolic event or in situ coronary thrombosis. We could not ascertain whether the acute right ventricular dysfunction was due to in situ pulmonary thrombosis or inferior STEMI. The catastrophic cerebrovascular accident was likely an embolic phenomenon. Similarly, the second patient demonstrated multiple large pedunculated thrombi occupying one-third of the LV cavity with moderately reduced LV function. A segmental pulmonary embolism was diagnosed on computed tomography chest, confirming multiple territories of in situ thrombosis.DiscussionCOVID-19-related inflammatory cytokine release has been linked to activation of coagulation pathways. Marked elevation of ferritin and C-reactive protein levels in both patients were consistent with evidence of a hyperinflammatory state with 'cytokine storm'. Furthermore, the finding of elevated D-dimer levels lends support to the altered coagulation cascade that plausibly explains the multisystem thrombosis observed in our patients. The direct viral endothelial involvement and subsequent endothelial dysfunction may play an important role in the development of thrombosis in different vascular beds, as seen in our patients.

Anticoagulation for left ventricular thrombi secondary to COVID-Is 3 months too long?

Project description:The length of anticoagulation for thrombotic events related to COVID-19 is unknown. We present a patient with COVID-19 complicated by a thrombotic anterior STEMI and multiple left ventricular (LV) thrombi that resolved after 8 weeks of anticoagulation. We suggest a shorter length of anticoagulation with COVID-19-related LV thrombus.

Transient left ventricular clot in COVID-19-related myocarditis is associated with hypereosinophilic syndrome: a case report.

Project description:Frequent clinical presentations have been reported in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). It may be associated with multi-organ and cardiovascular involvements such as myocarditis and clot formation. Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare disease diagnosed with idiopathic eosinophilia and organ involvement. Here, we report a patient with COVID-19 who presented with clot formation and myocarditis. One month after discharge, regarding persistent peripheral/bone marrow hypereosinophilia and clot in echocardiography, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis was done that showed FIP1L1-CHIC2 fusion (PDGFRɑ rearrangement) in 18% of scored cells and PDGFRβ rearrangement in 12% of scored cells, which confirmed HES diagnosis. Clot formation may be a late manifestation of COVID-19 or myocarditis due to COVID-19, or the first manifestation of HES that COVID-19 might provoke in this rare syndrome.
