Abstract:
:We describe the case of a man who suffered recurrent pulmonary embolisms despite well-conducted oral anticoagulant therapy. Echocardiography and helical computed tomography revealed a non-mobile right atrial mass related to a leiomyosarcoma of the left renal vein. The prognosis of such a disease is bad and the patient died at 1-year follow-up. Recurrent pulmonary embolism with well-conducted oral anticoagulant therapy requires further appropriate investigations, because of high suspicion of neoplastic process.
