Apical two-dimensional four-chamber (a) echocardiogram showing marked thickening of the right ventricle (arrow), right atrium (empty arrow), interatrial septum (empty arrowhead), and basal to mid interventricular septum (arrowhead) associated with a pericardial effusion. Aortic valve short-axis view (b) demonstrating that the thickened tissue (asterisk) extends around the root of aorta. RA indicates right atrium; LA, left atrium; RV, right ventricle; LV, left ventricle; AV, aortic valve.
