Space-occupying lesions in the heart refer to a rare congenital pathology with incidence of 0.32% in pediatric practice. In recent years, the detection frequency of this pathology has increased due to the achievements of early diagnostics (including prenatal diagnostics), integration of high volume scanning and high-quality ultrasound images. The greatest number of tumors (72–77%) is detected in infants under 1 year of age, up to 26% of which — prenatally. Available international clinical data confirms the congenital nature of most heart tumors, approximately 50% are rhabdomyomas. The presented clinical case demonstrates the demand for a complex approach and the application of new 3D and 4D cardiac scanning in pediatric practice to assess the severity of cardiovascular damage and the prognosis of treatment in patients with rhabdomyomas of the heart.

Fetal primary cardiac tumors are rare, but they may cause complications, which are sometimes life threatening, including arrhythmias, hydrops fetalis, ventricular outflow/inflow obstruction, cardiac failure, and even sudden death. Among fetal primary cardiac tumors, rhabdomyomas are most common, followed by teratomas, fibromas, hemangiomas, and myxomas. Everolimus, a mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor, has been reported to be an effective drug to cause tumor remission in three neonates with multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas. Neonatal cardiac surgery for the resection of primary cardiac tumors found by fetal echocardiography has been reported sporadically. However, open fetal surgery for pericardial teratoma resection, which was performed successfully via a fetal median sternotomy in one case report, could be a promising intervention to rescue these patients with large pericardial effusions. These recent achievements undoubtedly encourage further development in early management of fetal cardiac tumors. Owing to the rarity of fetal primary cardiac tumors, relevant information in terms of prenatal diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis remains to be clarified.
