Objective: This research work was carried out to assess the function of left ventricle and the determination of the reasons behind thrombus of the left ventricle. Study Design: This was a prospective research work depending upon the observations. Methodology: This research work was carried out in Sheikh Zayed Medical College and Hospital Rahim Yar Khan. All the patients suffering from the thrombus of the left ventricle identified with the utilization of echocardiography from June 2016 to July 2018 were under study for various reasons behind it & function of the left ventricle. Results: Total 56.0% patients suffering from the thrombus of the left ventricle were because of the chronic ischemic diseases of heart whereas 36.0% patients were available with dilated cardiomyopathy. Aneurysm of the left ventricle was present in 7.80% patients. The average age of the patients was 54.0 ± 3.0 years with 74.0% male patients & 26.0% female patients. The average ejection fraction was 22.0 ± 2.50% in the patients of dilated cardiomyopathy whereas it was 35.0 ± 17.0% in the patients suffering from primary diseases of the heart arteries. Conclusion: The main reasons associated with the thrombus of the left ventricle are dilated cardiomyopathy & ischemic diseases of heart. The abnormal function of the left ventricle is very frequent denominator in these patients. Key Words: Thrombus, Denominator, Thromboembolism, Ventricle, Cardiomyopathy.
