Antiphospholipid syndrome and right atrial mass Cristina Basso, MD, PhD, Tomaso Bottio, MD, PhD, Maurizio Rubino, MD, Amelia Ruffatti, MD, Demetrio Pittarello, MD, Gaetano Thiene, MD, Gino Gerosa, MD The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Volume 130, Issue 5, Pages 1462-1463 (November 2005) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2005.05.054 Copyright © 2005 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 A and B, Two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiogram shows a polypus mass in the right atrium attached to the free wall and free floating during the cardiac cycle so as to occasionally impinge into the tricuspid valve orifice. C, No evidence of intra-atrial mass recurrence at 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography at 6 months’ follow-up.

Figure 2 A, Gross examination of the resected mass reveals a reddish elongated neoformation with a rough surface, 3.5 × 0.8 × 0.9 cm in size and 2.3 g in weight. B, At histologic examination, the mass consisted of a fibrin network entrapping red cells, platelets, and leukocytes with focal early organization into fibrous tissue.
