yes B
An atrial myxoma can have a ball-valve effect that intermittently occludes the mitral valve, leading to the syncopal episodes. Most pericardial effusions are not large and do not cause major problems. Large effusions could lead to tamponade, but this is not an intermittent problem. Calcification of a bicuspid valve can lead to stenosis with heart failure, but this condition is progressive. By the time left atrial enlargement with mural thrombosis and risk of embolization occurs from mitral stenosis, she should been symptomatic for years. Coronary artery thrombosis results in an acute ischemic
