Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma is a rare tumour of vascular origin that rarely occurs in the heart. We provided a rare case of a 26-day-old infant with tachypnoea. Echocardiography showed a solid tumour in the pericardial cavity and a large amount of pericardial effusion. The solid tumour was confirmed by surgery, and the pathology was kaposiform hemangioendothelioma. We analysed this case and reviewed the related literature to explore the clinical features and echocardiographic manifestations to improve the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of this disease for clinicians and sonographers.
卡波西样血管内皮细胞瘤是一种罕见的血管源性肿瘤,很少发生在心脏。我们提供了一例 26 天大的婴儿因呼吸急促就诊的罕见病例。超声心动图显示心包腔内有一实性肿瘤和大量心包积液。实性肿瘤通过手术得到证实,病理为卡波西样血管内皮细胞瘤。我们分析了该病例,并复习了相关文献,以探讨其临床特征和超声心动图表现,提高临床医生和超声医生对此病的认识、诊断和治疗水平。
