Left atrial anomalous bands associated with arrhythmia detected by computed tomography during coronary CT angiography: a case series.

ABSTRACT: False tendons are fibrous cord-like malformations within the cardiac chambers, with only approximately 2% occurring in the left atrium. In this study, we analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics of multiple cases of left atrial false tendons (LAFTs) to provide additional clinical insights into this uncommon anatomical variant. A total of 10 representative LAFTs cases identified between September 2015 and June 2022 were included in this analysis. All patients were diagnosed using coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA). A retrospective analysis was performed using data retrieved from the Radiology Information System (RIS) and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). Clinical history and electrocardiographic data were reviewed, and Xelis software was used for thre
