Myxomas are benign and the most common tumors of the cardiac muscle (Reynen, 1995). They are predominantly located in the left atrium. Clinical manifestations may vary according to the localization and the size of the myxoma. On the other hand, imaging of a myxoma by contrast dye during coronary angiography is a rare sign, which displays the vascular supply of the tumor. Here, we report the case of a 51-year-old man presenting with presyncope and palpitations due to a giant left atrial myxoma having its vascular supply from the right coronary artery (RCA).
黏液瘤是良性的,也是心肌最常见的肿瘤(Reynen,1995年)。它们主要位于左心房。临床表现可能因黏液瘤的位置和大小而异。另一方面,在冠状动脉造影期间通过造影剂对黏液瘤进行成像则是一种罕见的征象,它显示了肿瘤的血管供应。在此,我们报告一例51岁男性患者,因巨大的左心房黏液瘤导致先兆晕厥和心悸,该黏液瘤由右冠状动脉(RCA)供血。
