Backgrounds: Primary cardiac tumors are rare entities.
Although most of them are benign histopathologically, they are potentially fatal because they may cause sudden hemodynamic obstruction.
Objectives: To document the cases in our hospital including clinical findings, echocardiographic features, and prognosis.
Methods .
Ten patients with primary cardiac tumors were studied from February 1994 to March 2001.
Resulls; Eight were female and 2 were male.
All patients were in the age range from 22 to 59 years with an average of 40.4+/-10.9 years.
Myxoma was the most common tumor; it was found in 8 patients.
Seven were in the left atrium and 1 was in the right atrium.
Malignant pericardial mesothelioma was found in 1 patient.
Left ventricular angiosarcoma was found in 1 patient.
Presenting symptoms were nonspecific, and the diagnosis was not suspected in any of these patients prior to echocardiographic examination.
Dyspnea was the most common presenting symptom, present in 4 (40%) of the patients.
Stroke and cerebral embolization were found in 3 (30%) of the patients.
One patient presented with a picture mimicking acute pericarditis.
None of the patients studied survived more than 2 years without cardiac surgery.
Conclusion: Primary cardiac tumors vary in presentation.
Without complete surgical excision, these tumors carry high morbidity and mortality regardless of malignant properties.
