In this chapter, cardiac masses due to primary and secondary cardiac tumors are presented using real-world case examples of cardiac myxoma, papillary fibroelastoma, cardiac lymphoma, etc. Diagnostic features of different cardiac tumors on echocardiography are discussed and a simple echocardiographic approach to the diagnosis of cardiac masses is presented. Normal cardiac structures that can masquerade as cardiac “pseudomass” are also presented.

摘要

In this chapter, cardiac masses due to primary and secondary cardiac tumors are presented using real-world case examples of cardiac myxoma, papillary fibroelastoma, cardiac lymphoma, etc. Diagnostic features of different cardiac tumors on echocardiography are discussed and a simple echocardiographic approach to the diagnosis of cardiac masses is presented. Normal cardiac structures that can masquerade as cardiac “pseudomass” are also presented.
