Figure 1. A. Pre-thrombolysis transthoracic echocardiogram. Technically difficult study: large mobile thrombus extending from the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle; dilated right heart chambers (with impaired right ventricular function). B. Pre-thrombolysis transthoracic echocardiogram: in addition to the findings described in panel A, colour flow shows a jet of severe tricuspid valve regurgitation. C. Post-thrombolysis transthoracic echocardiogram: complete dissolution of the right heart thrombus (with improved right ventricular function). D. Postthrombolysis transthoracic echocardiogram: colour flow shows mild regurgitation only A 90
