case_images: An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed sinus rhythm, normal QRS morphology, a prolonged QTc interval at 470 ms and no features of ischaemia (Fig. 1). The on-call cardiology team was contacted to perform emergent bedside echocardiography, which revealed complete occlusion of the RV and right atrium (RA) by thrombus, and severe LV systolic impairment with spontaneous echo contrast in the LV and left atrium (LA) (Figs. 2A and 2B, Videos 1 and 2).

case_images: The on-call cardiology team was contacted to perform emergent bedside echocardiography, which revealed complete occlusion of the RV and right atrium (RA) by thrombus, and severe LV systolic impairment with spontaneous echo contrast in the LV and left atrium (LA) (Figs. 2A and 2B, Videos 1 and 2). Repeat TTE performed 15 minutes post-thrombolysis demonstrated complete resolution of the RHT, as well as improvement in both RV and LV systolic function (Figs. 2C and 2D, Videos 3 and 4).
