Abstract :
Current evidence regarding the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the presence of left ventricular thrombus is primarily derived from observational studies with positive results in different meta-analyses that suggest a possible role for treatment.
We present the case of a 54-year-old female with a history of arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus recently diagnosed, who came for medical evaluation due to deterioration of functional class. Electrocardiogram in sinus rhythm with anterior bundle branch block.
