case_images: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) shows embolization of the right common iliac artery. The right common iliac artery was not filled with contrast, and the distal vessels were slimmer than the left (A,B).

case_images: Computed tomographic angiography (CTA) of the limb revealed no contrast agent over the entire course of the right common iliac artery, external iliac artery, or proximal segment of the internal iliac artery (Figure 1). Electrocardiography revealed sinus tachycardia (Supplementary Figures S1, S2).
case_images: Aortic computed tomography scan displaying floating thrombus in the aortic lumen. The multiplanar reconstruction of CTA shows a filling defect in the descending aorta (A) and in the aortic arch (C), with the long axis in line with the direction of blood flow, proximally attached to the wall and distally free. The cross-sectional view shows the floating thrombus in the descending aorta (B).

case_images: Electrocardiography revealed sinus tachycardia (Supplementary Figures S1, S2). The chest x-ray was normal, and aortic CTA was performed before surgery, demonstrating a large filling defect caused by a floating thrombus in the aortic arch and the descending thoracic aorta (Figure 2, Supplementary Figure S3).
