In the era of PPCI, the presence of early LVT following STEMI was associated with adverse events. Furthermore, the prognosis of patients with LVT did not improve even if the LVT regressed. LVT was likely a generalized indicator of impaired cardiac performance, rather than the cause. This indicated that prophylactic therapy and identifying individuals with a high risk of developing LVT were of substantial importance.
