Primary cardiac tumors are rare. Hemangiomas represent about 5%-10% of benign cardiac tumors. Hemangiomas can be found in any heart chamber, but atria have been more frequently involved. Ventricular involvement is uncommon. Hemangiomas may have various presentations, but there have been few reports about neurological manifestations of such tumors in the English-language literature. We present a patient with a left ventricular hemangioma who presented with leftsided weakness and sudden onset of slurred speech.
原发性心脏肿瘤较为罕见。血管瘤约占良性心脏肿瘤的5%-10%。血管瘤可出现在任何心脏腔室，但心房受累更为常见。心室受累并不常见。血管瘤可能有多种表现，但英文文献中关于此类肿瘤神经学表现的报道较少。我们报告一例左心室血管瘤患者，该患者表现为左侧肢体无力和突发言语不清。
