Key result
Multimodality imaging including TTE, TOE, and cardiac MRI successfully identified an 18x16 mm interatrial septal lipoma accompanying lipomatous hypertrophy in a 77-year-old man.
Case Report (n=1)
Multimodality imaging including TTE, TOE, and cardiac MRI is useful for the diagnosis and characterization of rare concurrent cardiac lipomas and lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum.

TOE may detect coexisting lipomas missed on TTE in symptomatic LHIS; leaves open their prevalence and management.
Gürsul et al. (2015) conducted a case report in Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum and interatrial septal lipoma (n=1). Multimodality cardiac imaging (TTE, TOE, and Cardiac MRI) was evaluated on Detection and characterization of cardiac mass. Multimodality imaging including TTE, TOE, and cardiac MRI successfully identified an 18x16 mm interatrial septal lipoma accompanying lipomatous hypertrophy in a 77-year-old man.
