We describe a case of Carney complex (CNC), a rare hereditary condition, that resulted in the development of cardiac myxomas. We would like to emphasize that we detected the first myxomas in both ventricles, followed by the second myxoma in the right atrium, although cardiac myxomas often originate in the left atrium. We highlight the heightened risk of recurrence and emphasize the importance of performing regular ultrasonic cardiac echography to preclude such outcomes.
我们描述了一例卡尼综合征(CNC)病例,这是一种罕见的遗传性疾病,导致了心脏黏液瘤的发生。我们想强调的是,我们首次在两个心室中发现了黏液瘤,随后在右心房发现了第二个黏液瘤,尽管心脏黏液瘤通常起源于左心房。我们强调了复发风险的增加,并强调了定期进行心脏超声心动图检查以避免此类结果的重要性。
