Figure 2 The echocardiography exposed multiple vegetations in pulmonary artery (A: diameter 15×5 mm; B: diameter 18×15 mm) and right pulmonary artery (C: diameter 7×8 mm). A parasternal short-axis (PSAX) view at the level of the great vessels, with a zoomed-in focus on the left pulmonary artery, revealed multiple vegetations. The vegetation labeled as (A) measured 15×54mm, the one marked as (B) measured 18×15 mm, and the one indicated by the red arrow (C) measured 7×8 mm.
