摘要
Magnetic resonance imaging is currently frequently used to differentiate lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum from other cardiac lesions involving abnormal fatty tissue including lipomatous neoplasms. This report discusses potential problems with this approach by emphasizing the variable appearance of lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum on magnetic resonance imaging.
