Bilateral above-knee amputation had been done after unsuccessful femoral embolectomy. A large thrombus was detected in the apical portion of the left ventricle which was the source of the embolus.The patient complained of mild frontal headache and progressive right-sided weakness shortly after an echocardiographic examination.
