The most common tumour of the heart is myxoma but paraganglioma (also called glomus tumour in extracardiac sites) in the cardiac position is the rarest of them. While this tumour accounts for 0.8% of all primary benign tumours, the combination of both neoplasms is an exceedingly rare occurrence. Herein, we present a case of combined carotid glomus tumour and left atrial paraganglioma tumour in which respiratory distress was the presenting symptom of cardiac type but carotid tumour was asymptomatic. The case underwent a two-step resection of the neck and cardiac mass with an uncomplicated postoperative course and in the 1year follow-up, no recurrence of tumour in both sites was found on physical exam and imaging studies.
心脏最常见的肿瘤是黏液瘤，但心脏部位的副神经节瘤（在心脏外部位也称为球瘤）是其中最罕见的。虽然这种肿瘤占所有原发性良性肿瘤的0.8%，但这两种肿瘤同时出现的情况极为罕见。在此，我们报告一例合并颈动脉球瘤和左心房副神经节瘤的病例，其以心脏型呼吸窘迫为首发症状，但颈动脉肿瘤无症状。该病例接受了颈部和心脏肿块的两步切除术，术后过程顺利，在1年的随访中，体格检查和影像学检查均未发现两个部位的肿瘤复发。
