May aid TEE use for lipomatous hypertrophy when TTE windows are poor; leaves open prospective validation.
Case Report (n=1)
Transesophageal echocardiography is a valuable imaging modality for characterizing lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum, particularly in patients with poor transthoracic windows due to chronic pulmonary disease.
Kindman et al. (1988) conducted a case report in Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum (n=1). Transesophageal echocardiography was evaluated on Appearance of lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum. Transesophageal echocardiography provided high-quality imaging to characterize lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum in a patient with inadequate transthoracic windows.
