Population
A single patient diagnosed with lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum in vivo using computed tomographic cardiac imaging.
E
Exposure
Computed tomographic cardiac imaging

Outcome
In vivo diagnosis of lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum

This case demonstrates that lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum can be diagnosed in vivo using computed tomography, and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of supraventricular arrhythmias in obese, elderly patients.

Isner et al. (1982) conducted a case report in Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum (n=1). Computed tomographic cardiac imaging was evaluated on In vivo diagnosis of lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum. In vivo diagnosis of lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum was successfully established using computed tomographic cardiac imaging in a patient with atrial fibrillation.
