Biatrial enlargement: is an increase in the size of both the upper two chambers of the heart--the right and left atria.

Atrial enlargement can be due to a problem with the heart valves, or chronic lung disease on the right, systemic hypertension on the left. It requires an expert cardiology evaluation to clarify.
