Two examples of LA myxomas at the TEE examination.
Left:
large characteristic left atrial myxoma with attachment at the atrial septum. The myxoma prolapses in the LV through the
mitral valve during diastole.
Right:
mid-size, round myxoma with attachment in the superior portion of the atrial septum.
Two further examples of masses at the TTE examination.
Left:
large metastasis of a renal cell carcinoma in the RV.
Right:
large mediastinal mass at the level of the great vessels.
Two examples of valvular vege- tations at the TEE examination.
Left:
large vegetation attached to a bioprosthesis in aortic position.
Right:
large vegetation on a native mitral valve.
Left:
large round vegetation on a native tricuspid valve at the TEE examination.
Right:
Chiari network in RA at the TTE examination. Notice a hyper- mobile atrial septum and
the clear ultrasound shade due to mitral annular calcificacion.
Left:
pronounced spontaneous echo contrast in LAA at the TEE examination.
Right:
cardiac involvement of hypereosinophilic syndrome. Well defined masses fill completely
the apical regions of both ventricles.
