A member asked:
Abnormal dilated lv with large fixed defect in anterior, septal, and inferior wall. rv function appears to be normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Defects: These findings in an echocardiogram are consistent with prior damage as seen in heart attacks(myocardial infarctions) causing a weakening of the left ventricle's contraction ability. You should be under the care of a cardiologist for Further investigation of your coronary artery circulation and preventative treatment as you cannot afford any more myocardial damage.
