Persistent apical flow abnormalities after reverse remodeling in ischemic cardiomyopathy maintain a thrombotic risk despite structural recovery.
Even after reverse remodeling in ischemic cardiomyopathy, patients with a prior LV thrombus remain at risk for recurrence due to persistent apical flow abnormalities, warranting longitudinal assessment with advanced imaging like 4D flow MRI.

This case demonstrates that structural and functional recovery does not eliminate thrombotic risk. Persistent apical flow abnormalities may create a prothrombotic environment, highlighting the importance of longitudinal flow assessment with advanced imaging such as 4-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging, particularly in patients with a prior thrombus.
