S M Horner1, J A Bell, R H Swanton.

A case of infected right atrial thrombus is described. Right atrial thrombus is difficult to diagnose and is associated with a high mortality. When it is additionally infected, antibiotics alone are not sufficient treatment and the thrombus should be surgically removed.
