Key result
Coronary neovascularity was angiographically visualized in 25% of patients with a left ventricular mural thrombus, with a lower incidence observed in those receiving anticoagulant therapy.

Coronary neovascularity can be visualized by arteriography in a subset of patients with left ventricular mural thrombus after myocardial infarction, which may indicate a relatively fresh or organizing thrombus.
Tomotsune et al. (1983) conducted an observational in Left ventricular mural thrombus post-myocardial infarction (n=36). Anticoagulant therapy vs. No anticoagulant therapy was evaluated on Presence of coronary neovascularity. Coronary neovascularity was angiographically visualized in 25% of patients with a left ventricular mural thrombus, with a lower incidence observed in those receiving anticoagulant therapy.
