What Causes Dark Spots On Heart?

My brother had a heart attack and had stents put in about 4 months ago. He went back for a checkup and they said that he had some dart spots on his heart and needs to come back. My brother is very depressed about this and I would like to know what causes these spots and how serious this might be.

Hello there
I understand your concern
I am not aware of any entity known as dark spots perhaps they are referring to clots in the left ventricle but I wont be sure of the grammer used by your cardiologist.
I do not think it is any thing serious and to get depressed

hope that helps
