We reported an exceedingly rare adult case of intracardiac teratoma with a bicuspid aortic valve. A small mass was discovered in the right ventricle of a 37-year-old man by accident after he was referred to our hospital due to chronic chest distress and aggravated palpitation. We performed a surgical exploration with excision of the lesion after a repeat transthoracic echocardiography suggested a space-occupying lesion in the interventricular septum. A mature cystic teratoma was pathologically confirmed. During the half-year follow-up, no symptoms were reported. This case constitutes the first report of the smallest primary intracardiac teratoma in an adult with a bicuspid aortic valve.
我们报道了一例极其罕见的成人心脏内胚层瘤合并二叶式主动脉瓣畸形病例。一位 37 岁男性因慢性胸痛和心悸加重就诊于我院，经复查经胸超声心动图提示室间隔占位性病变，意外发现其右心室有一小肿块。我们进行了手术探查并切除了病变。术后病理证实为成熟囊性畸胎瘤。在半年的随访中，患者无任何症状。该病例是首例报告的成人心脏内胚层瘤合并二叶式主动脉瓣畸形且肿瘤体积最小的病例。
