Key result
An abnormal smokelike vessel faded away over 10 years alongside a decrease in mural thrombus size, suggesting the vessel represented acquired neovascularity related to a newly developed thrombus.

Smokelike vessels may indicate thrombus-related neovascularity on serial angiography; hypothesis-generating case report that leaves open clinical implications.
Case Report (n=1)
A 'smokelike' appearance on coronary arteriography may indicate acquired neovascularity related to a newly developed mural thrombus.
Nakamura et al. (1993) conducted a case report in Coronary artery fistula through a mural thrombus on a left ventricular aneurysm (n=1). Coronary neovascularity and mural thrombus was evaluated on Change in abnormal vessel appearance and thrombus size. An abnormal smokelike vessel faded away over 10 years alongside a decrease in mural thrombus size, suggesting the vessel represented acquired neovascularity related to a newly developed thrombus.
