Figure 1 Vegetation in the superior vena cava. (a) Transesophageal echocardiography revealed an echogenic lesion in the superior vena cava (SVC) (2.4 × 2 cm) with a mobile ribbon-like structure extending into the right atrium (2.5 cm in length). (b) A vegetation (arrow) attached to the superior vena cava was explored after opening the right atrium (RA) and superior vena cava.
