  Abstract

We present the echocardiographic images of a patient with transient ischaemic attack with double atrial septum and persistent interatrial space as probable source of thrombus. A patent foramen ovale could be excluded and a communication between left atrium and interatrial space could be demonstrated.

Keywords: Double atrial septum; Persistent interatrial space; Transient ischaemic attack; Echocardiography
