ABSTRACT
Sporadic calcification of the left atrium is frequently observed in patients with long standing rheumatic valvular heart disease. However, massive calcification involving the entire left atrium, the so-called porcelain or coconut atrium, is extremely rare. A case of recurrent thrombosis in the left atrium was experienced due to massive calcification of the left atrial wall, despite the therapeutic anticoagulant level of the patient following a surgical thrombectomy.
