In the transthoracic echocardiograph, left ventricular contraction was depressed (ejection fraction = 25%) and akinesia of the septal, anterior and inferior walls was noted (Fig. 2). It revealed a dramatic increase in the left ventricular ejection fraction (to 49%) and complete resolution of the regional wall motion abnormalities (Fig. 2).
