Fig. 1 Twelve-lead electrocardiogram recorded on arrival in hospital demonstrating multifocal ventricular ectopics, right bundle-branch block, and marked ST segment abnormality. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1997 64, 240-242DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00275-0)
Fig. 2 Transverse-plane, two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiographic cardiac image during ventricular systole (A) and artist’s impression of the echocardiogram (B). The septum between the left atrium (LA) and the right atrium (RA) is disrupted, and the tricuspid valve is completely everted with remnants of the subvalvar apparatus (white arrow) prolapsing into the RA. (RV = right ventricle.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1997 64, 240-242DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00275-0)
