PURPOSE
Benign tumors are known to grow or develop sometimes during pregnancy. We present a case report about a young woman with a growing sternal tumor.
METHODS
After her second pregnancy, a 32-year-old female presented with a rapid growing sternal tumor. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a tumor measuring 10 × 8 × 7 cm with an intrathoracic bulk, compressing the heart and the upper margin of the liver.
RESULTS
Resection of the tumor was performed uneventfully. Histologic examination of the resected mass revealed a chondroma.
CONCLUSION
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a huge sternal chondroma growing in a pregnant patient. There is not often a need to treat these patients before delivery, however, thereafter surgical treatment of growing tumors is recommended.
目的
已知良性肿瘤有时会在孕期生长或发展。我们报告一例关于一名患有正在生长的胸骨肿瘤的年轻女性的病例。
方法
在第二次怀孕后，一名32岁女性出现快速生长的胸骨肿瘤。计算机断层扫描（CT）显示一个大小为10×8×7厘米的肿瘤，有胸腔内肿块，压迫心脏和肝脏上缘。
结果
肿瘤切除顺利进行。对切除肿块的组织学检查显示为软骨瘤。
结论
据我们所知，这是首例关于一名怀孕患者体内生长巨大胸骨软骨瘤的报告。通常在分娩前无需对这些患者进行治疗，然而，此后建议对生长中的肿瘤进行手术治疗。
