摘要：
We present a patient with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and a large left ventricular apical thrombus in which serial echocardiography over a 1-month period documented progressive enlargement of this mural thrombus. This case illustrates the dramatic progression of left ventricular thrombus size despite aggressive anticoagulation. In addition, the critical role of echocardiography in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with left ventricular thrombus is emphasized.
