Cardiac tumors: clinical presentation, diagnosis, reatment, and results.

Cardiac tumors are a heterogeneous group of diseases that include primary and metastatic tumors. Among primary tumors, benign tumors account for the majority, and the incidence of malignant tumors is low. In contrast, the incidence of metastatic tumors is significantly higher than that of primary tumors. The clinical features of cardiac tumors are diverse, and symptoms vary depending on the tumor type. Therefore, the diagnosis method of cardiac tumors must adopt multi-modal detection methods to ensure the accuracy of diagnosis. Treatment of cardiac tumors mainly involves surgical resection of the primary tumor to ensure complete resection. For metastatic tumors, it is crucial to consider the primary tumor when surgically resecting metastases. Depending on the characteristics of the tumor, appropriate radiation therapy or chemotherapy can improve quality of life and extend survival.
