Left atrial ball thrombus.

The existence of a freely-floating thrombus in the left auricle is a rare finding in mitral pathology. Diagnosis by two-dimensional echocardiography has been described by various authors (1, 2, 3). In our case echocardiographic diagnosis of auricular thrombus was not possible at the beginning, given the bad ultrasonic window. Only when the thrombus floated freely in the left auricle it was detected in the region of the mitral valve, in spite of the bad ultrasound window.

Intracaval extension of pheochromocytoma ultrasonographic demonstration.

Pheochromocytoma is a relatively rare neoplasm, one which may also be found in association with other neoplasms. Preoperative demonstration of malignant pheochromocytoma into the inferior vena cava is uncommon. This is the first confirmed report of the ultrasonographic demonstration of inferior vena cava extension of a malignant pheochromocytoma. The coexistance of a primary bronchio-alveolar adenocarcinoma with this lesion has also not been previously reported.
