Primary cardiac tumors are extremely uncommon in young children and infants. Cardiac myxoma are typically found in the atria, predominately in the left atrium, with relatively few found on the right side, such as in the right ventricle or pulmonary artery. Numerous significant complications, including sudden death, can result from obstruction of the main pulmonary artery trunk and right ventricular outflow tract. Here, we describe the case of a 14-year-old Chinese girl diagnosed with a right ventricular myxoma located in the right ventricle and extended into the main pulmonary trunk. Complete resection of the myxoma and histological confirmation were performed.
原发性心脏肿瘤在幼儿和婴儿中极为罕见。心脏黏液瘤通常见于心房，主要在左心房，右侧发现的相对较少，如在右心室或肺动脉。主肺动脉干和右心室流出道梗阻可导致包括猝死在内的许多严重并发症。在此，我们描述了一名14岁中国女孩的病例，她被诊断为右心室黏液瘤，位于右心室并延伸至主肺动脉干。对黏液瘤进行了完整切除并进行了组织学确诊。
