We present an exceedingly rare case of right ventricular outflow tract obstructing mass in an adult patient who presented with dyspnea and dizziness. Transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography angiogram of the chest showed a large mass in the right ventricle obstructing the outflow tract. A dual right ventriculotomy and right atriotomy surgical approach was taken to completely resect the mass from the interventricular septum, which subsequently confirmed histopathologically the mass as a mature cystic teratoma.
我们呈现了一例极为罕见的成年患者右心室流出道梗阻性肿块病例,该患者以呼吸困难和头晕为主要表现。经胸超声心动图和胸部 CT 血管造影显示右心室有一巨大肿块,阻塞流出道。我们采用双右心室切开术和右心房切开术的外科方法,从室间隔完全切除肿块,随后组织病理学检查证实肿块为成熟囊性畸胎瘤。
