ABSTRACT
Described in the article is a clinical case report regarding a male patient presenting with pulmonary thromboembolism, with a floating thrombus in the common femoral vein, in the right atrium, prolapsing into the right ventricle and propagating through a patent foramen ovale to the left atrium, thus being a threat of paradoxical embolism. The echocardiography findings demonstrated the following: mean pressure in the pulmonary artery amounting to 56 mm Hg, dilatation of the right atrium and right ventricle. The patient was subjected to simultaneous thrombectomy from the common femoral artery, from the right, left atria and pulmonary artery in conditions of cardioplegia, as well as ligation of the superficial femoral artery. The postoperative period proved uneventful. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 15, with pressure in the pulmonary artery amounting to 38 mm Hg. Besides, analysed herein are the contemporary literature data, clinical guidelines, and opinions of experts concerning treatment policy in this complex pathology.

ABSTRACT
We utilize various ab initio approaches to search for a low-lying resonance in the four-neutron (4n) system using the JISP16 realistic NN interaction. Our most accurate prediction is obtained using a J-matrix extension of the no-core shell model and suggests a 4n resonant state at an energy near E_{r}=0.8 MeV with a width of approximately Γ=1.4 MeV.
