Abstract
We present a patient with a large, left atrial ball valve thrombus that was intermittently obstructing a bioprosthetic mitral valve. The diagnosis was confirmed by transesophageal two-dimensional echocardiogram. The transthoracic study initially had failed to demonstrate the true ball valve nature of the thrombus and instead, suggested two separate mass lesions, one in the left atrium and one in the bioprosthetic mitral valve.
