Q: i recently had a echocardiogram and this is the report. mildly dilated left atrium. i have the full report if i can send it to you. thanks?

: A dilated left atrium usually means there is pressure built up there. Why is there pressure build up there ? valve issues? hypertension? Its common in an obese patient who has hypertension. It is known to be connected to atrial fibrillation
