Abstract
I n t r o d u c t i o n . Right ventricular (RV) thrombosis is a rare life-threatening complication of right heart failure developing amid venous thromboembolic complications and severe lower respiratory tract infections.
A i m . Exchange of experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with RV thrombosis associated with severe pneumonia.
M a t e r i a l s a n d m e t h o d s . We studied a history of the inpatient and the archive of medical records, including the results of lab tests, functional diagnostics and radiologic imaging.
R e s u l t s . The article presents a case report of a 19-year-old female patient, in whom the clinical picture of acute right heart failure and RV thrombosis occurred amid severe pneumonia.
C o n c l u s i o n . Timely diagnosis and treatment of acute right heart failure, pulmonary thromboembolism, and RV thrombosis can improve outcomes and reduce mortality in patients with severe pneumonia.
