Abstract

Atriyal miksomalar, en sık karşılaşılan
benign primer kardiyak tümörlerdir. Literatürde tanımlandığı üzere birçok
komplikasyona yol açmaktadır. Çoğunlukla solda atriyumda olsa da atriyum ve
interatriyal septuma bağlı olarak, herhangi bir kardiyak boşlukta ortaya
çıkabilir. Bu olgu raporunda 55 yaşındaki bir kadın hastamızı sunduk.
Kardiyoloji polikliniğine tek taraflı geçici görme kaybı etyolojisinin
araştırılması amacıyla danışıldı. Transözofageal-ekokardiyografide kardiyak
miksoma olarak şüphe edilen bu kitlelenin cerrahi esnasında sol atriyum
posteriyor duvar, sol üst pulmoner ven çevresinden kaynaklandığı tespit edildi
ve kitle tamamen çıkartıldı. Patolojik inceleme sonucunda tanı kardiyak miksoma
olarak doğrulandı. Geçici iskemik semptomları olan ancak atriyal fibrilasyonu
olmayan hastalarda sol atriyumda potansiyel kitle tanısını koymak için
ekokardiyografi yapılmalıdır.

An atypical presentation of an atypically localized cardiac myxoma

Abstract

Atrial myxomas are the most common benign
primary cardiac tumors that can lead to many complications as defined in
literature. Although the majority occur in the left atrium and attached to
interatrial septum, they can arise from any cardiac chamber. Here we report the
case of a 55-year-old woman whom was referred to our outpatient clinic for
etiological diagnosis of unilateral transient loss of vision. Transesophageal
echocardiography revealed a mass that was suspected as cardiac myxoma arising
from the posterior wall of the LA in the vicinity of the left superior
pulmonary vein. During the surgical procedure cardiac mass was removed totally
and the pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis as cardiac myxoma. In
patients with transient ischaemic symptoms but without atrial fibrillation
echocardiography should be performed to diagnose of potential mass in left
atrium.
