Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Cardiac haemangioma is a rare primary cardiac tumour. Most patients with cardiac haemangioma have no typical symptoms, and some may present with non-specific manifestations, such as shortness of breath, heart palpitations, or cardiac insufficiency, making it difficult to distinguish cardiac haemangioma from other diseases. We report a case of cardiac haemangioma that present with chest pain. This haemangioma was finally completely excised to relieve the patient's symptoms and a avoid poor prognosis.
CASE SUMMARY: A 14-year-old boy presented with an intermittent and progressive non-exertional chest pain for 2 weeks. Echocardiography showed a space-occupying mass at the right ventricular apex, which was later confirmed by computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The mass was successfully resected, and postoperative pathology confirmed a cardiac cavernous haemangioma. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery at the 8-month follow-up.
DISCUSSION: Cardiac haemangioma is a benign tumour with no typical clinical manifestations, and very few patients may present with chest pain. Preoperative echocardiography, computed tomography, and MRI are helpful for diagnosis, and surgery can relieve symptoms and may improve the prognosis of patients with cardiac haemangioma.
