A member asked:

My echocardiogram said 27mm is this a good or a bad thing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

27 mm?: What was 27 mm - your left atrium? your aortic root? your interventricular septum? Your mitral E point to septal separation? etc.? Some of those would be good and some very very bad, depending on what it was that was 27 mm!

Dr Knecht agreed
