title: LIPOMATOUS HYPERTROPHY OF INTRA ATRIAL SEPTU.
abstract: Lipomatous hypertrophy of the intra-atrial septum (IAS) is often misdiagnosed on routine imaging as a possible intra-cardiac mass, often leading to unnecessary and invasive surgical interventions. The use of transesophageal echocardiography can help to better diagnose this condition and avoid needless invasive procedures.
