We report a patient who had two histologic and distinct synchronous intracardiac tumors, with one located in each atrium. The second tumor was missed on intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography, but was discovered when the right atrium was opened using a bi-atrial trans-septal approach. We discuss the merits of this approach and the role of additional imaging for cardiac tumors.
我们报告了一名患者,其患有两个组织学上不同的同步性心内肿瘤,每个心房各有一个。术中经食管超声心动图未发现第二个肿瘤,但在采用双心房经房间隔入路打开右心房时发现了该肿瘤。我们讨论了这种入路的优点以及心脏肿瘤额外影像学检查的作用。
