Myxoma is the most common benign primary cardiac tumor. Hypovascular myxomas are frequently diagnosed, whereas hypervascular myxomas are rare. Read our CASE report, "Hypervascular Myxoma in the Left Atrium," here: bit.ly/4prRl9B

I love using AI on my busy echo days- it is fast, super reproducible. BUT… a recent study shows that AI tools weren’t trained on HCM patients. In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, they underestimate LVEF and overestimate volumes.

I still remember how surprised (and frankly disillusioned) I was when I first saw the Uretsky et al. data 🥴 : clear discordance between echo and CMR-derived severity of mitral regurg bit.ly/4k7VfRr Now we have not less uncertainty with TR 📑 💡 bit.ly/3RS79CW

#EHJCVI 🤔 16-year-old male with a 2-month history of intermittent chest tightness. No prior surgical history ✂️ or traumatic injuries 🤕 ECG shows right axis deviation. Cardiac enzymes and BNP normal ✅ TTE normal ✅ MRI reveals this: 👀 @escardio.bsky.social @jgrapsa.bsky.social

Finally! 📑 💡largest MV surgery cohort MVP with MAD! FU median 5,4 y. I always thought that in MVP and MAD excessive mech. stress ➡️ leaflet degeneration, ➡️ PM fibrosis = substrate for VA One would expect that correcting MV and MAD would reduce VA🧐 bit.ly/3Yic9o4
