%! Tricuspid valve chordae tendineae as protective filter to prevent massive pulmonary embolism
%K 
%X Although several cases of thrombus-in-transit associated with pro-thrombotic conditions have been reported (1-3), a transit thrombus located in the right ventricular (RV) cavity is extremely rare (4,5). Here, we report a case of nephrotic syndrome (NS) with a RV thrombus-in-transit that threatened to cause a fatal pulmonary embolism (PE).
