Epicardial and transverse sinus fat pad near left atrium appendage; role of 3D echocardiography

Pericardial fat pad in transverse sinus adjacent to left atrial appendage (LAA) is a rare condition that may resemble LAA thrombosis especially in suspected cases. More Trans‐esophageal echocardiography (TEE) angulations and also 3D TEE images are helpful tools to confirm the diagnosis. Pericardial...
