Highly unlikely!: I have never heard of implants impairing a physicians ability to evaluate a cardiac murmur under normal conditions.

Rarely: If the implants are really large and your murmur very quiet it might be possible, but this one is very unlikely.. :).

Unlikely.: Good question but i think it would be very unlikely that breast implants would interfere with detection of a heart murmur.

No: Interesting and good question. While it makes sense to think that the implants could interfere with heart auscultation it is not likely as the implants are highly mobile and if needed they can be displaced enough to listen to all hear sounds. Good question though.
