We report an unusual case of cardiac hamartoma involving the ventricular septum. The patient presented with palpitations and exertional chest pain. Echocardiography indicated a large homogeneous mass occupying the superior two-thirds of the ventricular septum. This report confirms the use of transthoracic echocardiography as a screening tool in the diagnosis and management of an uncommon case of a benign cardiac tumor.
我们报告了一例罕见的累及室间隔的心脏错构瘤病例。患者表现为心悸和劳力性胸痛。超声心动图显示一个巨大的均匀肿块占据了室间隔上三分之二的区域。本报告证实了经胸超声心动图作为一种筛查工具在诊断和处理罕见的良性心脏肿瘤病例中的应用。
