摘要
The interaction between the right upper pulmonary vein (RUPV) and the right lower pulmonary vein (RLPV) is poorly understood. In this paper, using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and 80-slice multidetector computed tomography (80-MDCT), we report that the RUPV thrombi and the RLPV thrombi invade the left atrium (LA) and reach the anterior wall of the LA. To our knowledge, this is the first study to directly show the connection between the RUPV thrombi and the RLPV thrombi on the anterior wall of the LA using TEE and 80-MDCT.
