Abstract

Aim: Cardiac masses are rare and categorized as non-neoplastic and neoplastic. Different imaging methods play a vital role in the diagnosis and surgical planning of cardiac masses. Echocardiography is the primary method of mass detection. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to detect and monitor cardiac masses. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of radiology in the detection of rare cardiac masses and treatment planning. Patients and Methods: Admission symptoms of five patients with cardiac masses detected in our radiology unit between 2018 and 2021, the imaging methods in which the lesions were determined, and whether the imaging findings were consistent with their patholo gical diagnosis were evaluated. Results: The masses of patients diagnosed with lymphoma, pleomorphic sarcoma, and hemangioma were larger than 3 cm. The margins of the malignant masses were ill-defined, and invasion into adjacent structures was seen. Cardiac hemangioma, pericardial cyst, and myxoma had diagnostic radiological findings. Conclusion: It is significant to know the imaging findings according to the pathological diagnosis of cardiac masses in patient management and treatment planning.

Özet

Amaç: Kardiyak kitleler nadir görülür; neoplastik ve neoplastik olmayan olarak sınıflandırılır. Kardiyak kitlelerin tanısında ve cerrahi planlanmasında farklı görüntüleme yöntemleri hayati bir rol oynamaktadır. Ekokardiyografi, kitle tespitinde birincil yöntemdir. Kardiyak kitleleri tespit etmek ve takip etmek için bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) kullanılır. Bu çalışmada nadir görülen kardiyak kitlelerin tespiti ve tedavi planlamasında radyolojinin rolünü değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Hastalar ve Yöntem: 2018-2021 yılları arasında radyoloji ünitemizde saptanmış kardiyak kitlesi olan beş hastanın başvuru semptomları, kitlelerin tespit edildiği görüntüleme yöntemleri ve görüntüleme bulgularının patolojik tanıları ile uyumlu olup olmadığı değerl endirildi. Bulgular: Lenfoma, pleomorfik sarkom ve hemanjiyom tanısı alan hastaların kitleleri 3 cm'den büyüktü. Malign kitlelerin sınırları belirsizdi ve komşu yapılara invazyon görülmekteydi. Kardiyak hemanjiyom, perikardiyal kist ve miksoma tanısal radyolojik bulgulara sahip ti. Sonuç: Kardiyak kitlelerin patolojik tanısına göre görüntüleme bulgularının bilinmesi hasta yönetiminde ve tedavi planlamasında önemlidir .
