2 Figure (A-C) Transthoracic echocardiogram showing severe aortic and mitral regurgitation resulting from thickening and retraction of valve cuspids secondary to earlier exposure to radiotherapy. (D, E) A coronary angiography demonstrating nonsignificant ostial impingement of the left and right coronary arteries. (F) Late gadolinium enhancement in cardiac magnetic resonance images demonstrated valvular, subvalvular, and extensive subendocardial myocardial fibrosis that did not correspond to a coronary territory or to a pattern consistent with other cardiomyopathies in a patient with previous exposure to radiotherapy.
