title: Occurrence of the Chiari network in a centenarian: echocardiographic study and magnetic resonance imaging.
abstract: An occasional finding of Chiari network in the right atrium of a centenarian patient confirms that it may be considered as a "normal anatomic variation" compatible with a long life span. The finding is documented by using echocardiographic and cardiac nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in a 102-year-old man.
