case_images: The left ventricle was mildly dilated with severe global systolic dysfunction and an ejection fraction of 20-25% (Figures 1 and 2, see Additional files 1 and 2). There was mild mitral regurgitation with a pulmonary artery systolic pressure of 30 mm Hg.

case_images: The left ventricle was mildly dilated with severe global systolic dysfunction and an ejection fraction of 20-25% (Figures 1 and 2, see Additional files 1 and 2). There was mild mitral regurgitation with a pulmonary artery systolic pressure of 30 mm Hg.
case_images: A transthoracic echocardiogram 4 chamber view from subxiphoid approach representing a 25 mm echolucent region adjacent to the right ventricular free wall and right atrium, presumed to be due to a pericardial effusion.

case_images: A moderate sized pericardial effusion, measuring 25 mm in diameter was present, particularly along the RV free wall (Figure 3, see Additional file 3).
case_images: A transthoracic echocardiographic short axis view from subxiphoid view representing echodense material attached to the right ventricular wall, presumed to be thrombus (arrows).

case_images: Echodense material attached to the RV was also observed, and was presumed to be thrombus (Figure 4, see Additional file 4).
