Figure/Graphic 2: Endokarditis - Diagnose - TEE Systolic frame from a 4 chamber transesophageal echocardiographic study in a patient with chronic renal failure and haemodyalisis. The unexpected oscillating mass on the submitral apparatus (arrows: left 2D, right M-mode derived echocardiogram) is consistent with vegetation (see text). LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle. |
