We diagnosed a case of primary cardiac lymphoma using transthoracic needle biopsy. A 70-year-old man was admitted because of dyspnea. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a tumor mass in the right ventricular free wall. We performed ultrasound guided transthoracic needle biopsy using an 18-G needle, and diagnosed as malignant lymphoma by the biopsy specimen. This method may be useful for the diagnosis of cardiac lymphoma.
我们通过经胸针吸活检诊断出一例原发性心脏淋巴瘤。一名70岁男性因呼吸困难入院。磁共振成像显示右心室游离壁有一个肿瘤肿块。我们使用18G针进行了超声引导下经胸针吸活检，并通过活检标本诊断为恶性淋巴瘤。这种方法可能对心脏淋巴瘤的诊断有用。
