A 31-year-old female patient with a previous history of Carney complex and surgical resection for cardiac myxoma and bilateral adrenalectomy at 18 years old and 10 and 11 years old, respectively, was referred to our department with a diagnosis of recurrent biatrial myxomas incidentally discovered on echography. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the diagnosis of a tumor protruding into the left ventricle, and the patient underwent a surgical resection of a large left atrial mass and a right-sided atrial small tumor. Diagnosis of bilateral atrial myxomas was confirmed by histologic studies. Postoperative outcome was uneventful, and the patient was discharged at the 7th postoperative day. Few months later, she reported trivial clinical symptoms suspecting a cervical radiculopathy. MRI confirmed the presence of a compressive cervical spinal cord tumoral mass at the C2-3 level leading to perform a surgical exeresis of the tumor. Histology showed a spinal melanotic schwannoma. This case highlights the risk of unexpected ubiquitary tumor locations and the importance of a rigorous transversal multidisciplinary follow-up to prevent severe complications in patients with Carney complex.
一名31岁女性患者,既往有卡尼综合征病史,分别在18岁以及10岁和11岁时因心脏黏液瘤接受手术切除,并进行了双侧肾上腺切除术。该患者因超声检查偶然发现复发性双房黏液瘤而转诊至我科。磁共振成像(MRI)证实诊断为肿瘤突入左心室,患者接受了大的左房肿物及右侧心房小肿瘤的手术切除。组织学研究证实为双侧心房黏液瘤。术后恢复顺利,患者于术后第7天出院。几个月后,她报告有轻微临床症状,怀疑为颈椎病。MRI证实C2 - 3水平存在压迫性颈脊髓肿瘤性肿物,遂进行了肿瘤手术切除。组织学显示为脊髓黑色素性神经鞘瘤。该病例突出了肿瘤意外广泛发生部位的风险,以及严格横向多学科随访对于预防卡尼综合征患者严重并发症的重要性。
