We report on one affected twin who presented with cough, dyspnoea and severe failure to thrive. He was found to have gross cardiomegaly on chest X-ray. This proved to be due to an intrapericardial teratoma with an associated pericardial effusion. The operation on this rare tumour was successful.
我们报告了一名患病双胞胎,他出现咳嗽、呼吸困难和严重发育不良。胸部X光检查发现他有明显的心脏肿大。事实证明,这是由心包内畸胎瘤伴心包积液引起的。对这种罕见肿瘤的手术很成功。
