Masses within the heart are most commonly due to thrombus formation or vegetations associated with endocarditis. Two-dimensional echocardiography is much better than M-mode for the detection and localization of any intracardiac mass. Thrombus formation is usually associated with an abnormally moving wall and may be very small and layered or in a case of dilated cardiomyopathies very large and pedunculated. © Springer-Verlag London Limited 2009.
