Abstract

• CTD and SLE with APS-associated thrombogenesis can lead to RA thrombi formation. • In CTD, a large inferior RA chamber thrombi can cause severe inflow obstruction. • TTE and TEE are essential in defining the hemodynamic impact of CTD and RA thrombi. • TEE is key in guiding successful surgical resection of CTD and RA thrombi.
