Abstract
A patient with alcoholic cardiomyopathy presented with recurrent biventricular heart failure. Echocardiography supported the clinical diagnosis and suggested the presence of multiple left ventricular mural thrombi. At postmortem large left ventricular and small right ventricular thrombi were found in association with systemic and pulmonary emboli. Echocardiography may be of value in the earlier detection of intramural left ventricular thrombi.
