Cardiac and Pericardial Tumors
Cardiology in Review, 2012Primary cardiac tumors of the heart present often as a clinical dilemma and need to be considered in the differential diagnosis of other cardiovascular diseases. They are infrequent and often asymptomatic. Occasionally, the tumors may be life threatening. Secondary involvement of the heart by extracardiac tumors is much more common.

Abstract Tumors of the heart in infants are very rare. The neoplasm commonest in adults, intracavitary myxoma, practically never occurs in infancy. Intracavitary fibromas causing obstructive symptons in the left and, rarely, in the right ventricle are commoner in infancy than in older age groups.

Cardiac Autotransplantation for Primary Cardiac Tumors
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2006Complete tumor resection is the optimal treatment of cardiac tumors. Anatomic accessibility and proximity to vital structures complicates resection of tumors involving the left heart. The results of standard resection and resection with orthotopic heart transplantation are dismal.

Neurological Complications of Cardiac Tumors
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2019This article reviews recent literature regarding the neurological manifestations of cardiac tumors, including diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment.Clinical cases of patients with acute ischemic stroke due to cardiac tumors who were treated with intravenous alteplase show a favorable safety profile.

Cross-sectional imaging techniques such as echocardiography and MRI provide important information about cardiac masses. Echocardiography can provide information about cardiac tumors with regard to size, location and response to treatment. MRI is helpful in determining tumor extent, mobility, location, local invasion, relationship with critical cardiac ...

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1990
Whereas abundant literature is available on mechanisms imposed by neoplastic diseases on the immune system, only few details are known about immunological parameters of autoreactive mechanisms directed against the heart. This report will focus on cardiac autoreactivity in patients with endomyocardial types of cardiac tumors (e.g.

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1968
Abstract The pathology of cardiac tumors is reviewed, including that of myxoma, papillary tumor of the heart valves, rhabdomyoa, lipoma, fibroma, teratoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, angiosarcoma and fibrosarcoma. Particular attention is paid to the macroscopic and histologic features of the cardiac myxoma and to the effects and bizarre clinical features to ...

Abstract Primary tumors of the heart are exceedingly rare, accounting for less than 5% of all cardiac tumors; the remaining 95% are metastatic tumors to the heart. The most common primary cardiac tumors in adults are myxomas, usually occurring in the left atrium, followed by lipomas and fibroelastomas.
