Intracardiac blood cysts are thin-walled congenital cysts located in the endocardium and are seen predominantly in infants. They are rare in adults and are typically asymptomatic. However, complications such as valve dysfunction and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction have been reported in adults. We report a 42-year-old woman who developed an embolic stroke in association with intracardiac blood cysts. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of intracardiac blood cysts manifesting as an embolic stroke.
心内血囊肿是位于心内膜的薄壁先天性囊肿，主要见于婴儿。在成人中罕见，通常无症状。然而，成人中曾报道过瓣膜功能障碍和左心室流出道梗阻等并发症。我们报告一名42岁女性，她发生了与心内血囊肿相关的栓塞性中风。据我们所知，这是心内血囊肿表现为栓塞性中风的首例病例报告。
