The Right Ventricular Myxoma Which Attached to the Tricuspid Valve: Sliding Tricuspid Valvuloplasty
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a rare case of an extremely large right ventricular myxoma involving the ventricular side of the tricuspid valve. The tumor was excised along with the entire posterior leaflet and part of the anterior leaflet. The tricuspid valve was repaired by sliding valvuloplasty combined with ring annuloplasty.

Injury to the tricuspid valve and membranous atrioventricular septum caused by huge calcified right ventricular myxoma: report of a case.
A 64-year-old female, admitted because of severe dyspnea on exertion and facial edema, showed echocardiographic findings of a large tumor in the right ventricle (RV). Echocardiography revealed a cardiac mass extending from the RV across the tricuspid valve into the right atrium, synchronized with the cardiac cycle, and severe tricuspid regurgitation was apparent. The mass was removed under card...

This report describes a spectrum of M-mode and cross-sectional echocardiographic abnormalities in eight patients with infective endocarditis of the tricuspid valve. The M-mode echocardiogram of the tricuspid valve was abnormal in all but one patient in whom abnormal echoes were seen anterior to the tricuspid valve, in the right ventricular cavity and right ventricular outflow tract. Six patient...

Myxomas are the most frequent benign primary cardiac tumours (50% of benign heart tumours). This kind of tumour is most likely to be localized in the left atrium, followed by the right atrium, right ventricle and left ventricle. Quite exceptional is the presence of a myxoma originating from the tricuspid valve or from the Eustachian valve. We describe the case of a woman with moderate dyspnoea ...

متن کاملGiant myxoma causing right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
Atrial cardiac myxoma is the most common benign cardiac tumour. Atrial myxoma most commonly arises from the left atrium and, less frequently, from the right atrium or both ventricles. Cardiac myxoma arising from the tricuspid valve is rare. These tumours can present with right heart failure as a result of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. A high index of suspicion and appropriate inv...
