In this clinical vignette, we present the case of an 83-year-old female patient with acute limb ischemia, resulting from a large (1.8 × 2.8 cm) mobile thrombus in the descending aorta. The peripheral obstruction was treated with mechanical thrombectomy, whereas the intra-aortic thrombus was treated conservatively with clopidogrel and fondaparinux. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).
