Right atrial masses are easily seen by 2-dimensional echocardiography and may represent primary tumors, secondary tumor invasion of the right atrium, tricuspid valve vegetations, or atrial thrombi. Calcification of right atrial masses is uncommon but easily identified by 2-dimensional echocardiography because of the high echogenicity of calcium deposits. We describe a patient with a heavily calcified right atrial thrombus caused by an indwelling central venous catheter and long-term intravenous phosphate infusion.
二维超声心动图很容易发现右心房肿块,这些肿块可能代表原发性肿瘤、右心房的继发性肿瘤侵犯、三尖瓣赘生物或心房血栓。右心房肿块钙化并不常见,但由于钙沉积的高回声性,二维超声心动图很容易识别。我们描述了一名因留置中心静脉导管和长期静脉输注磷酸盐导致右心房血栓严重钙化的患者。
