ABSTRACT
A 77-year-old woman presented with chest pain and cardiogenic shock. Transesophageal echocardiography showed a mobile mass occluding intermittently the left coronary ostium. The mass was surgically resected, and histologic examination revealed an organized thrombus. Coagulation study demonstrated a protein S deficiency. This is the first case of aortic thrombosis associated with protein S deficiency, and it is the first time that transesophageal echocardiography provided definite evidence that a mass can cause intermittent left ostium coronary obstruction.
