On coronary angiography, extensive thrombus in the left main coronary was noted and there was obstruction of the mid left anterior descending and proximal circumflex branches. Despite multiple attempts including use of aspiration catheters, flow to the Cx and LAD was not restored. |

![]() | Saddle Thrombus - Feline Hind Leg Paralysis In early August 2008, Candy began to walk with a swagger in his rear legs. Favoring one side then the other. It became progressively worse to the point that by 8/10/2008 he was dragging his hind quarters. He was taken to several vets who ran tests, but could not explain what was wrong with him. I went to Yahoo Answers and typed in feline paralysis back legs in their search engine and did the same at Google and found descriptions of exactly the same symptoms he was exibiting. Caudal aortic thrombus (saddle thrombus) is caused by an underlying congestive heart condition. Pieces of the aging heart tear off and travel through the body. In Candy's case, it was the hind legs that were affected. It's a common disease amoung older cats, too. Candy is 13 years old and my vet told me that's around 80 years in a human. Other symptoms are blue pads and toes on the rear legs and no pulse (femoral pulse) in the rear legs. The legs will feel cold to the touch because no blood is flowing through them. Today, August 16th, 2008, I will talk to his vet about this and if he does have saddle thrombus, I will have him put down. He's in pain and he won't get better. Treatments include a blood thinner called warfarin, but with Candy's advanced feline leukemia and AIDS also damaging his body, it's kinder to put him to sleep. I will miss him forever. ---- At 9:00 a.m. today (8/16/08), I had Candy put to sleep. He suffers no more. |

![]() | Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm(AAA) with Large Thrombus This abnominal aortic aneurysm was found when the subcostal view of echocardiography was performed for an old man. Abdominal aortic aneurysm also written as AAA and often pronounced "triple A',is a localized of abdominal aorta, that exceeds the normal diameter by more than 50%. The intraluminal thrombus is commonly found within AAA. Many people who have abdominal aortic aneurysm do not experience symptoms.When the aneurysm reaches approximately five (5) centimeters, it is at high risk for rupture. |
