Echocardiography result revealed a dilated right atrium and ventricle (right ventricular end diastolic diameter, RVEDD: 59 mm) with a moderate tricuspid regurgitation owing to a dilated valve annulus of 48 mm. The left heart showed no pathological impairment: left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) was 40 mm with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50¨C55%. The patient also showed a progressive impairment of liver function by means of elevated levels of liver enzymes.
