Abstract
Intracardiac thrombus may develop as a consequence of multiple underly ing cardiac disorders. Other systemic disorders may predispose formati on of thrombus within the heart, or the heart may be the site of embol i in transit - thrombus originating elsewhere and traveling through th e heart to the pulmonary or arterial circulation. Part V of this five- part series on intracardiac thrombus will focus on ''migrating thrombi ,'' miscellaneous systemic conditions associated with intracardiac thr ombi, and echocardiographic detection of intracardiac thrombus.
