Figure 1. Transthoracic echocardiography at the apical 4 chamber view showed right ventricular and atrial dilatation and severe tricuspid valvular regurgitation. RA, right atrium; RV, right ventricle.
Figure 2.
Figure 2. Transthoracic echocardiography at the modified parasternal short axis view showed proximal pulmonary artery thrombus. PA, pulmonary artery.
Figure 3.
Figure 3. Continuous wave doppler signal showed the peak tricuspid valvular regurgitation velocity was 4.2 m/sec and peak pressure gradient was estimated at 70.56 mmHg.
Figure 4.
Figure 4. Chest computed tomography showed diffused thrombus in the central and both main pulmonary arteries.
