Fibroma cardíaco mimetizando cardiomiopatia hipertrófica

Abstract: INTRODUÇÃOOs tumores primários do coração são raros 4 e,até há poucas décadas, constituíam, em sua maioria, achados de necropsia 21. A evolução da propedêutica médica e dos métodos diagnósticos, especialmente os não invasivos, vêm possibilitando a identificação e o tratamento adequado de inúmeros tumores cardíacos. Entretanto, os sintomas desses tumores, invariavelmente, são inespecíficos e dependem do grau de obstrução que seu crescimento proporciona à cavidade em que se localizam. A expansão lenta de alguns … Show more

“…Echocardiographic examination of the carotid arteries was normal. A transoesophageal echocardiography showed a pedunculated, mobile structure on the aortic surface of the non-coronary cusp of the aortic valve (0.9 cm long), probably a fibroelastoma or vegetation for its physical aspect on DISCUSSION Papillary fibroelastoma is a rare and benign cardiac tumor [3]. Is the third primitive cardiac tumor after myxoma and lipoma, representing nearly 80 to 90% of tumors which take their origin from valvular endocardium.…”

“…Although we are not in favor or a routine valve replacement, in our cases simple suture after resection of the lesion presented tension, judged as a risk for the development of late dysfunction. Some authors have encouraged the use of the fiberscope for resecting of intracardiac masses as a promising technique [3]. …”
