An 82-year-old man presented to our emergency department complaining of shortness of breath over recent days. He had a me-dical history of hypertension, dilated cardiomyopathy, and chronic at-rial fibrillation. Electrocardiography showed atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate. We carried out contrast-enhanced computed tomography due to his high Modified Well’s scores and elevated D-dimer. This revealed a small filling defect over the left lateral basal segmental artery and posterior branch of the basal trunk of the right pulmonary artery with patent bilateral main pulmonary trunks. This was compatible with pulmonary embolism (Fig. 1A and B, arrow). The Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index was 112.1) No vasopressor was ne-eded after admission except oxygen supplement. Intravenous un-fractionated heparin was given according to Raschke Nomogram.2) Doppler was used for evaluation of the limbs, which showed no evi-dence of deep venous thrombosis. Standard transthoracic echocar-diography (TTE) was used the next day, which disclosed one huge floating thrombus located over the right atrium (Fig. 1C). This moved into the right ventricle during diastolic phase (Fig. 1D). The patien
