Abstract

Numerous diagnoses in the hospital setting require anticoagulation. With different etiologies, certain specific assessments may not have a treatment plan that is studied extensively in evidence-based medical texts. In these uncommon situations, management may not have clear medical guidelines for successful treatment. We present a case of bi-atrial thrombus via PFO with concurrent pulmonary embolism, extensive clot burden history, and the plan to move forward with Angiovac. In patients with this specific history and pathology, modern procedures like Angiovac should be considered and discussed.
