In a patient with a primary cardiomyopathy, anatomical investigation allowed us to find a total old organised thrombosis of the coronary sinus associated with the presence of a right ventricular stimulator of a pacemaker. A brief review of the literature reveals that cardiac thombosis is a surpising and rare complication of a residual intracavitary pacemaker, even if it is located in the coronary sinus.
