Angioplasty

2022-08-27 13:16:34
My father recently suffered mild heart attack and was diagnosed with 90%+ blockage in LCX artery. He went through angioplasty. Today in his followup visit, in 2D Echo test he had irregular heartbeat and LA is mildly dilated in size. Can you please suggest what does this mean and what should we do about it ?
