摘要
We describe a patient who developed a deep venous thrombosis that subsequently embolized to both the pulmonary and systemic arterial circulations. The diagnosis of arrested paradoxical embolus in transit at two separate and unique anatomic locations was made with intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography, and the patient did not suffer organ damage as a result of the paradoxical emboli.
