Echocardiography

Possible echocardiographic findings in AIDS patients with cardiac involvement include:

• Pericardial effusions in pericarditis
• Ventricular dilatation in dilated cardiomyopathy
• LV dysfunction in heart failure
• Hypertrophied right ventricle in pulmonary hypertension
• Vegetations in infective endocarditis
• Tricuspid regurgitation
• Mitral valve prolapse
