I do not know much about the patient history, however I think a balloon valvolotomy was performed several years before this echo and that could explain the eccentricity of the Mitral regurgitation jet.
wooooow 5 star rated THANKS FOR PUTTING IT UP I NEVA SEEN BEFORE SUCH A REMODELLED ATRIUM I SEE THAT , BESIDE A STRONG ALIASING EFFECT , THE MITRAL REGURGITATION IS STRONGLY ECCENTRIC AND SEEMS TO FLOW TOWARD THE LATERAL WALL ANY ADDICTIONAL INFOS???????????????
