Paragangliomas, also known as extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas, arise from chromaffin cells within the autonomonic ganglia. Catecholamine secreting paragangliomas have been described in the mediastinum, but rarely invade the heart. This case describes the use of a novel bioabsorbable matrix that was used to replace a tumor invading the posterior left atrium.
副神经节瘤，又称为肾上腺外嗜铬细胞瘤，起源于自主神经节内的嗜铬细胞。曾有描述在纵隔发生的儿茶酚胺分泌性副神经节瘤，但很少侵犯心脏。本病例描述了一种新型可吸收基质的应用，该基质用于替换侵犯左心房后壁的肿瘤。
