Hello,

Sparky is a 14 years old M/N rescue that was diagnosed with CRF, PLN. Abdominal US find an incidental Aortic thrombus. My collegue is considering dental due to severe periodontal disease. I did image the heart despite no murmur or arrhytmia on PE.

My questions:

– is the apperance of the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve consistent with endocardiosis?

-is it possible to have so advanced mitral valve disease  with enlarged LA and with no obvious regurg ( not able to reproduce on echo and also confirmed no murmur…. maybe a grade 1-2)

-Is the aortic thrombus explained by PLN or heart condition?

Thank you so much 🙂
