INTRODUCTION: Impending paradoxical embolism (IPDE) is a rare condition where a thrombus straddles the foramen ovale with a high risk of arterial embolism.
CASES REPORT: We report two cases of impending paradoxical embolism, an uncommon condition with a high mortality rate. The first in a young woman with acute right heart failure operated emergently, the second, in an old and frail lady presenting an ischemia of the left arm, treated by anticoagulants. 3 D echocardiography imaging is presented and treatment modality is discussed.
CONCLUSION: Emergent treatment is mandatory for IPDE, a serious disease with a high early mortality. This paper is a reminder of how to deal with such a rare condition.
