A 71-year-old male with a malignant primary cardiac lymphoma nearly filling the right atrium presented with symptoms of obstruction of the tricuspid valve and inflow to the right atrium. The tumour was resected as fully as possible; however, a portion of the tumour that had invaded the inferior aspect of the right atrium and the atrioventricular groove could not be excised. Eighteen months after initial presentation, the patient is well and the tumour has not recurred. This is the first case of symptom-free survival of primary cardiac lymphoma for as long as 18 months.
一名71岁男性患有恶性原发性心脏淋巴瘤,几乎占据了右心房,出现了三尖瓣梗阻及右心房血流受阻的症状。肿瘤被尽可能完整地切除;然而,侵犯右心房下缘和房室沟的部分肿瘤无法切除。初次就诊18个月后,患者情况良好,肿瘤未复发。这是原发性心脏淋巴瘤无症状存活长达18个月的首例病例。
