An unsuspected metastasis of liposarcoma of the heart was detected on a computed tomographic (CT) examination of the chest. Further CT study with i.v. contrast administration gave excellent delineation of the tumor. Compared with two-dimensional echocardiography and angiocardiography, CT was best at showing the myocardial and intrapericardial extension of the tumor, but did not show movement of the tumor during the cardiac cycle. CT is a useful noninvasive method for evaluating cardiac metastasis. Its advantages and disadvantages with respect to echocardiography and angiocardiography are discussed.
在胸部计算机断层扫描(CT)检查中发现了一例未被怀疑的心脏脂肪肉瘤转移灶。静脉注射造影剂后的进一步CT研究对肿瘤进行了很好的描绘。与二维超声心动图和心血管造影相比,CT在显示肿瘤的心肌和心包内扩展方面表现最佳,但未显示心动周期中肿瘤的运动情况。CT是评估心脏转移的一种有用的非侵入性方法。讨论了其相对于超声心动图和心血管造影的优缺点。
