Abstract

A case of right ventricular myxoma masquerading as infundibular pulmonic stenosis with right‐sided heart failure is presented. The unsuspected tumor was diagnosed with two‐dimensional multicrystal real time scanning and single element echocardiography. Direct visualization of the tumor anatomy and its spatial relationships on cross‐sectional images facilitates the diagnosis. On the other hand, the more accurate motion analysis from the time‐motion display of the echo data yields additional functinal information. Thus the two techniques are complementary to establish a diagnosis in those disorders where anatomy and funciton overlap. Ultrasonic examination yields a practical solution to the problem of screening patients to detect intracardiac tumors. This painless, noninavasive examination should be included in the analysis of every patient with cardiac symptoms.

Cardiac myxomas are rare neoplasms usually diagnosed by echocardiography. Preoperative tissue diagnosis is usually not obtained because of the location of these neoplasms. Their cytologic appearance has only been reported from touch imprints of operative specimens or aspirates of metastatic deposits
