When someone tells you, you have a big heart it doesnt always mean a good thing, especially if a doctor says that, this picture of a very BiG heart (Cardiac Hypertrophy) this can be caused by severe valve disease(stenosis) or heart failure, the heart enlarges as a result of constant stress on the heart and it becomes bigger in order to compensate for the heart failure BUT this will cause the heart to be less effective and may lead to death! @medicalcortex #medicalstudent #medstudents #medstudent #nurse #heart #cardiacarrest #cardio #gym #fitness #doctor #cardiology #cardiologia #f4f #l4l #premed #usmle #autopsy #health #emergency #stress #surgery #surgeon
