A Case Series of Epicardial Lipomatosis Masquerading as Extracardiac Pathology on Echocardiography: Role of Multimodality Imaging in Clarifying Misdiagnosis

ABSTRACT: Graphical abstract Highlights • Epicardial fat presents challenges in differentiating it from pericardial effusion.• Epicardial lipomatosis can mimic tumor or thrombus, leading to potential misdiagnosis.• Epicardial lipomatosis has been reported to present with cardiac symptoms.• Chest computed tomography and chest magnetic resonance imaging help to avoid misdiagnosis.
