Heartworms in the right atrium and ventricle. When heartworms move from the pulmonary arteries into the right heart, a condition called caval syndrome can developed. It is fatal if the worms are not physically or medically removed. A medical protocol with IV fluids, pimobendan, sildenafil, and corticosteroids can be life saving. JVECC 2020 has a great article "Resolution of caval syndrome during initial hemodynamic stabilization in dogs with heartworm disease.
