A 58-year-old male with an unknown medical history presented with acute encephalopathy, receptive aphasia, and hypertensive emergency. The patient did not have any family members from whom a collateral history could be obtained. He underwent X-rays of the abdomen and bilateral humeri/femurs to check for foreign bodies. He was found to have right femoral open reduction and internal fixation with retained screw fragments. He was diagnosed with ischemic stroke on MRI. Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) revealed right-sided heart failure and a tricuspid valve mass as well as right to left shunting. This raised concern for large atrial septal defect (ASD) with paradoxical embolization from tricuspid valve mass. Transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) redemonstrated large ASD. Concern was raised for the ASD closure device as the cause of this "tricuspid mass." Due to history of orthopedic procedure, it was hypothesized that the patient had an IVC filter placed in the setting of pulmonary embolism (PE) prior to an orthopedic procedure. The tricuspid valve was visualized under fluoroscopy and was confirmed to be a migrated IVC filter. He was taken to the operating room (OR) for cardiac surgery for the removal of the IVC filter and repair of ASD. Surprisingly, no ASD was found.
