COVID-19-related subclinical myocarditis resulting in mural left ventricular thrombus

Learning Points for CliniciansThe risk of thrombosis post-COVID-19 is not insignificant during the acute phase of illness, especially in those with greater severity of infection, and can persist for several months. CMR is valuable in identifying suspected cardiac involvement and its complications in such patients. LV thrombus is a rare but potentially serious complication that may occur even with asymptomatic or mild disease and may result in embolic sequelae.
