Unknown left atrial appendage mass! real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography helps in identification
Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) is the most contractile part of Left atrium. It is also the most frequent place for thrombus formation that may lead to disastrous consequences. Complete trasoesophageal echocardiography examination always includes assessing LAA but sometimes unusually placed pectinate mu...
