Abstract

Intracardiac myxomas are the most frequent primary tumors of the heart. These benign tumors are usually located in the left atrium. Although most patients are symptom free, constitutional, embolic and obstructive symptoms may also present in these patients. Surgical resection of a myxoma is the only acceptable therapy and to prevent the dangers of embolisation and sudden death, should be performed immediately. 54-year-old male admitted with exercise intolerance, pretibial edema and dyspnea during the last week is presented. 1-2/6° diastolic murmur was heard on the left third intercostal space. Transesophagial echocardiography demonstrated a mass with 4.8x5.2 cm in size which was restricting the transmitral blood flow in the left atrium: The mass was removed with standart left atriotomy technique and diagnosed as myxoma. Although no residual or recurrence mass was detected with transtorasic echocardiography imaging on the postoperative first month atrial septal defect was shown. The case is presented to underline the importance of atrial myxomas and accompanying surgical complications.

Özet

Intrakardiyak miksomalar primer kardiyak tümörlerin en sık görülenleridir. İyi huylu olup çoğu kez sol atriyuma yerleşirler. Olgular genellikle asemptomatik olabildikleri gibi embolik, obstrüktif semptomlarla da gelebilirler. Emboli ve ani ölüm riski nedeniyle erken cerrahi rezeksiyon tek tedavi seçeneğidir. Efor dispnesi, son bir haftadır gelişen istirahat halindeki nefes darlığı ve bacaklarda şişlik yakınması ile başvuran 54 yaşındaki erkek olgu, sol 3. interkostal aralıkta 1-2/6 diastolik üfürüm, ve transtorasik ekokardiyografide sol atriyumda transmitral akımı kısıtlayan 4.8x5.2 cm boyutlarındaki kitle tespit edilmesi üzerine öpere edildi ve 'miksoma' tanısı aldı. Postoperatif birinci ayındaki kontrolünde rezidü kitle ya da nüks olmamakla birlikte, transtorasik ekokardiografide 4 mm çapında cerrahi komplikasyon olarak gelişmiş olan atriyal septal defekt tespit edildi. Olgu, atriyal miksomaların önemi ve eşlik edebilecek cerrahi komplikasyonların vurgulanması için sunulmuştur.
