What treatents are there? Oral sex anticoagulants such as coumadin. Intravenous anticoagulants such as heparin, stretokinase, urokinase. Subcutaneous anticoagulants such as heparin, clexane.

A mural thrombus is a mass of dead cells, firbrin, and a few red cells. It does not embolize or liquify usually. You should not anticoagulate.


cause of mural thrombus: almost always LAD thromboses. to treat LAD throbosis: 1. give aspirin (prevent another thrombosis of coronary vessel) 2. and warfarin/heparin (prevent mural thrombus formation)

mural thrombi = MIXED thrombi --> not pure venous or platelet. transmural infarction injures endothelial surface --> platelets stick.(tx=aspirin) next, ventricles not contracting well and get stasis --> venous like clot with coagulation factor involvement.(tx=heparin/warfarin) so, to prevent mural thrombus after infarct, give both aspirin and warfarin/heparin.
