Radiology, 1970
Abstract A case of a local aneurysm of the posterior wall of the left atrium, occurring in a 31-year-old Caucasian female with mitral insufficiency, is reported. The lesion was present on plain roentgenograms and identified by angiography. The differential diagnosis included aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary veins, giant left atrium, and left ...

The terminology of the atria has been confusing. The words, auricle, atrium, and appendix (or appendage) are often interchanged. Auricle (L. auricula = ear) has long been used—presumably because of the fancied resemblance of the protuberance of the right-sided chamber to the ear of a dog.

The fully developed human left atrium (LA) consists of the true atrial septum, a superior smooth walled portion, and an inferior trabeculated portion. The smooth walled portion is larger and originates embryologically from the pulmonary veins that combine to form a common pulmonary vein before becoming integrated with the inferior portion of the left ...

Anaplastic Myxoma of Left Atrium
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1957Despite the fact that primary cardiac tumors have recently become so much less of a medical curiosity that individual cases are being reported less frequently, instances that present interesting and uncommon pathological and clinical features are still worthy of comment.

A recurrent left atrium leiomyosarcoma
European Radiology, 1998Cardiac leiomyosarcoma is a rare tumour which can grow either intramurally or extramurally. Its prognosis is dismal. Surgery lengthens survival, but recurrences usually occur in the short term. Gated MRI is useful for the assessment of cardiac masses since it provides fine spatial and contrast resolution.

Recurrent Myxosarcoma of Left Atrium
Chest, 1975The surgical treatment of cardiac myxosarcoma is reviewed with emphasis placed on palliative response to radiation therapy. A case of primary myxosarcoma of the left atrium in a 16-year-old girl is presented. The tumor was surgically removed in October, 1967.

There is currently a general consensus in the literature about the definitions of diastolic dysfunction and diastolic failure, even though these concepts have only relatively recently been introduced into the clinical arena. The key to their definitions, as discussed in other chapters, is the central and predominant role played by the ventricular ...

Multidetector CT of left atrium
European Journal of Radiology, 2012MDCT angiography has enabled visualization of left atrium in addition to coronary arteries. CT images can be utilized to demonstrate normal anatomy and pathologies. Left atrium variations and pathologies include atrial septal pouch, patent foramen ovale, atrial septal defect, atrial band, lipomatous hypertrophy, cor triatriatum, diverticulum, accessory

The left atrium (LA) lies behind the ascending aorta and is superior to the LV (Figs. 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3). The LA is demarcated from the LV by the atrioventricular groove, within which lie the LCx and the coronary sinus.
