Asymptomatic floating thrombus in the ascending aorta depicted on four-dimensional computed tomography
Aortic mural thrombi of the ascending aorta are rare. If an aortic mural thrombus is dislodged, it can cause various embolic complications, which can sometimes be fatal. Although contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and transesophageal echography are useful for diagnosing aortic mural thrombi,...
