A prenatal echocardiogram revealed a large right ventricular mass. Following birth, there was obstruction to pulmonary blood flow and cyanosis. The tumor's size and location prevented resection. The patient underwent "single ventricle palliation," including placement of a systemic-to-pulmonary shunt as a newborn. This palliation served as a successful bridge to heart transplantation at 7 months of age. Pathologic examination revealed cardiac fibroma.
产前超声心动图显示右心室有一个大肿块。出生后,出现肺血流梗阻和发绀。肿瘤的大小和位置妨碍了切除。患者接受了“单心室姑息治疗”,包括在新生儿期放置体肺分流管。这种姑息治疗成功地为7个月大时的心脏移植搭建了桥梁。病理检查显示为心脏纤维瘤。
