A case of a small-sized cavernous hemangioma in the right ventricle - an incidental finding
A cardiac cavernous hemangioma is a rare, primary, benign tumor that is usually diagnosed in young or middle-aged patients. In this article, we report the case of a 71-year-old male patient whose doctors incidentally discovered a heart tumor on his transthoracic echocardiography. Triple-phase comput...

description | A cardiac cavernous hemangioma is a rare, primary, benign tumor that is usually diagnosed in young or middle-aged patients. In this article, we report the case of a 71-year-old male patient whose doctors incidentally discovered a heart tumor on his transthoracic echocardiography. Triple-phase computed tomography (CT) (pre-contrast, arterial and portal venous) missed the lesion, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a small, oval tumor attached to the wall of the right ventricle. The tumor was successfully removed surgically, and the patient recovered after 2 weeks. A histopathological examination resulted in the diagnosis of a benign cavernous hemangioma. |
