An observation of malignant mesothelioma of the pericardium is described. The tumour grew as papillomatous formations and thick plaques lining the inner surface of the pericardium with transition to the epicardium and the development of massive hemorrhagic pericarditis. The mixed nodular-plate form is histological close to adenocarcinoma. There were metastases in the pleura, paratracheal and posterior mediastinal lymph nodes. Clinically the disease ran a course with angina pectoris and simulated idiopathic myocarditis not confirmed histologically.
本文描述了一例心包恶性间皮瘤的观察情况。肿瘤呈乳头状结构生长,心包内表面有增厚的斑块,可延伸至心外膜,并发展为大量出血性心包炎。混合性结节 - 片状形态在组织学上与腺癌相似。胸膜、气管旁和后纵隔淋巴结有转移。临床上,该疾病表现为心绞痛,曾被误诊为特发性心肌炎,但组织学检查未证实。
