Key result
ŌNŌ Retrieval Device successfully extracts large right atrial thrombus in a sickle cell patient.
Why the study?
Intracardiac masses and specifically right atrial thrombi are difficult to manage and carry high mortality, while standard surgical removal or mechanical thrombectomy may not be suitable for all patients.

The ŌNŌ Retrieval Device represents a feasible alternative for extracting large right atrial thrombi in patients who may not be suitable for surgical removal or standard mechanical thrombectomy.
Intracardiac masses and specifically right atrial thrombi can be difficult to manage and carry a high mortality rate. Typically, surgical removal or mechanical thrombectomy can be performed though may not be suitable for all patients. We present a unique case of a sickle cell patient with a large pedunculated right atrial thrombus that was successfully extracted using the novel ŌNŌ Retrieval Device.
