A calcified amorphous tumor that developed on both sides of the atrioventricular valve annulus

We report a rare case of a hemodialysis patient with a calcified amorphous tumor (CAT) on both sides of the atrioventricular valve annulus. A 70-year-old female who had received hemodialysis for 23 years because of chronic glomerulonephritis presented to our hospital with acute heart failure. Echocardiography indicated the presence of mobile cardiac masses on the mitral valve and tricuspid valve annulus. We suspected the presence of a cardiac tumor or vegetation. The patient received 3 g/day sulbactam-ampicillin and 60 mg/day gentamicin. Surgery was performed on the 14th day after hospital admission. The patient underwent mitral valve replacement, tricuspid annuloplasty, and tumor resection. Based on the pathological findings, the cardiac tumor was diagnosed as a CAT.
