Pericardial effusion in a parasternal long-axis echocardiogram

A 2D echocardiographic parasternal long-axis view shows a moderate-sized anterior and posterior pericardial effusion, which also extends behind the left atrium. The interventricular septum and posterior LV wall are hypertrophied.

2D: 2-dimensional; PE (ant): pericardial effusion (anterior); PE (post): pericardial effusion (posterior); IVS: interventricular septum; RV: right ventricle; Ao: aorta; MV: mitral valve; LA: left atrium; LV: left ventricle; IL: inferolateral.
