I’m not sure what the significance of it is, given that the echo was unremarkable, so it’s possible that it could be caused by the presence of pericardial fat. I don’t see evidence of pulmonary edema, so I don’t think the clinical signs are cardiogenic in origin, but I’m not sure exactly what could be the underlying cause.
