Left ventricular apical thrombi: Silent but terrifying.

We present a case with a large left ventricular (LV) thrombus that presented to the emergency department with dyspnea. Bedside transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a huge hypermobile thrombus with a maximum of 8.6 × 2 cm in size extending to the aortic valve originating from the aneurysmatic apical wall of the LV. Treatment of the patient included complete thrombus resection with aneurysmectomy.
