enitis in favour of sarcoidosis. The patient was diagnosed as having stage I sarcoidosis. She underwent surgical resection of the atrial mass (online supplementary video 1, www.karger.com/doi/10.1159/000319701). The definitive diagnosis was left atrial myxoma ( fig. 3 ). Real-time EBUS-guided TBNA has been shown to be diagnostic in a variety of pulmonary diseases affecting the mediastinal and h...
متن کاملleft atrial and left atrial appendage mass diagnosed by cardiac imaging: a case report
introduction left atrial thrombi are present in one third of patients with severe rheumatic mitral stenosis and atrial fibrillation. a left atrial mass can be diagnosed as a thrombus by transthoracic echocardiography in the presence of the predisposing factors for a thrombus such as mitral stenosis and atrial fibrillation. the sensitivity of transthoracic echocardiography for detecting left atr...
متن کاملInverted Left Atrial Appendage Masquerading as a Left Atrial Mass
An inverted left atrial appendage after cardiac surgery is a rare finding and can be misinterpreted as a thrombus, mass, or vegetation. We report a case where intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography assisted in making an accurate diagnosis.
متن کاملA Neovascularized Left Atrial Mass
Background. The discovery of a large left atrial mass through echocardiography obliges the clinician to perform a differential diagnosis to distinguish tumor from thrombus. The neovascularization of the mass could be helpful to predict the type of the malformation and whether it is in favour of a vacular tumour rather than a thrombus . Observation. A 43-years-old man who had no cardiac antecede...
متن کاملEndobronchial mass formation after endobronchial ultrasound–transbronchial needle aspiration mimicking implantation metastasis
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has been widely used for diagnosing intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. Here, we present two cases of endobronchial polyp formation after an EBUS-TBNA for suspicious malignant lymph nodes. An inflammatory polyp should be considered as a possible differential diagnosis for a newly developed mass after an EBUS-TBNA.
