Abstract

A 66-year-old man without symptoms, referred for the treatment of moderate hypertension, was found to have a right atrial mass by two-dimensional echocardiography. On transesophageal echocardiography two masses were detected on the tricuspid valve, the first one on the posterior leaflet and the second smaller one on the anterior leaflet. These findings were confirmed at surgery. Histologic analysis revealed that the masses represented papillary fibroelastomas.

摘要

一名66岁无症状男性因中度高血压前来治疗，经二维超声心动图检查发现右心房有一肿块。经食管超声心动图检查发现三尖瓣上有两个肿块，第一个位于后叶，第二个较小的位于前叶。手术结果证实了这些发现。组织学分析显示，这些肿块为乳头状纤维弹性瘤。
