Abstract
A 73-year-old female presented with leg claudication and chest pain. A mobile mass in the ascending aorta was found.The mass was removed through a transverse aortotomy on circulatory arrest via sternotomy.Free-floating ascending aortic thrombus is a rare source of peripheral embolization. We advocate for emergent surgical resection to prevent further embolization and stroke.
