Abstract

A 12-year-old girl with fatigability, dyspnea, variable murmurs, and chronic congestive failure was treated for chronic myocarditis with medical management for 16 months. Cardiac catheterization and angiography performed to rule out constrictive pericarditis disclosed a right atrial myxoma. Following removal of the mass, this patient became asymptomatic. Since right atrial myxoma rarely occurs in children and can mimic other diseases, the diagnosis depends on a high index of suspicion.

摘要

一名12岁女孩，有易疲劳、呼吸困难、多变杂音及慢性充血性心力衰竭症状，接受了16个月的慢性心肌炎药物治疗。为排除缩窄性心包炎而进行的心脏导管插入术和血管造影显示右心房黏液瘤。切除肿瘤后，该患者无症状。由于右心房黏液瘤在儿童中很少见且可模仿其他疾病，诊断取决于高度的怀疑指数。
