Cardiac masses can manifest as a variety of signs and symptoms in adults. In this report, we report a case that highlights the value of advanced imaging of a newly symptomatic and previously undiagnosed cardiac neoplasm. In addition to the standard transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, cardiac catheterization may be employed to further understand the vascularity of such cardiac pathology prior to surgical intervention.
心脏肿物在成人中可表现为多种体征和症状。在本报告中,我们报告了一例病例,该病例突出了对新出现症状且先前未确诊的心脏肿瘤进行高级成像的价值。除了标准的经胸和经食管超声心动图检查外,在手术干预前,可采用心导管检查来进一步了解此类心脏病变的血管情况。
