Abstract

The prevalence of primary cardiac tumors has been reported to be between 0.19% and 0.0017%. Cardiac tumors are usually intracavitary lesions and more than 75% of them are benign. Myxomas are rare in childhood and constitute 10% of all pediatric cardiac tumors. Myxomas localized in the right ventricle are very rare in children. In this paper, we describe a 14-year-old boy with right ventricular myxoma.

Özet

Primer kardiyak tümörlere %0,0017 ile %0,19 arasında rastlanmaktadır. Kardiyak tümörler genellikle intrakaviter olup, %75'ten fazlası benigndir. Miksomalar çocukluk çağında nadir görülür ve tüm pediatrik kalp tümörlerinin %10'unu oluşturur. Sağ ventrikül yerleşimli miksoma çocuklarda çok çok nadirdir. Biz bu makalede sağ ventriküler miksomalı 14 yaşında bir erkek çocuk sunduk.
