Right-ventricular hemangioma causing serious outflow-tract obstruction. 1991

Clinic for Heart Surgery, University of Cologne, Germany.

A 28-year-old woman had a partially nonexertional dyspnea and a murmur of pulmonary stenosis. Echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass causing a nearly completely pulmonary outflow-tract obstruction. The mass was successfully resected and the pathological diagnosis of a mixed capillary and cavernous polypoid hemangioma was made. This case represents one of the very rare cases of a right-ventricular hemangioma in adults in which obstruction of the outflow-tract was initially evident. Non-invasive diagnosis and an exploratory operation with resection is the procedure of choice.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008279	Magnetic Resonance Imaging	Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D006338	Heart Neoplasms	Tumors in any part of the heart. They include primary cardiac tumors and metastatic tumors to the heart. Their interference with normal cardiac functions can cause a wide variety of symptoms including HEART FAILURE; CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS; or EMBOLISM.

D006352	Heart Ventricles	The lower right and left chambers of the heart.

D006391	Hemangioma	A vascular anomaly due to proliferation of BLOOD VESSELS that forms a tumor-like mass. The common types involve CAPILLARIES and VEINS. It can occur anywhere in the body but is most frequently noticed in the SKIN and SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE.

D014694	Ventricular Outflow Obstruction	Occlusion of the outflow tract in either the LEFT VENTRICLE or the RIGHT VENTRICLE of the heart. This may result from CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS, predisposing heart diseases, complications of surgery, or HEART NEOPLASMS.
