摘要：

We evaluated the stability of left atrial spontaneous echo contrast in 25 patients with mitral stenosis who underwent repeat transesophageal echocardiography over periods ranging from 1 month to 3 years. Left atrial Spontaneous echo contrast did not disappear or decrease in severity in any patient and was unchanged in 88% of patients.
