چکیده
Cardiac Hydatid cyst is uncommon, but life threatening. Cardiac involvement occurs in only 0.5-2% of all hydatid infestations. In this report, we present a case of hydatid cyst located in the right atrium adjacent to tricuspid annulus, which was excised surgically (Pam Med J 2008;2(2):98-100).

Giant cardiac hydatid cyst with rare adhesions.
We present a 29-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department with shortness of breath. Using echocardiography, a giant multi-cystic mass was detected in the right ventricle, attached to the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve and basal portion of the interventricular septum. Serologic tests (hydatid cyst antibody) confirmed Echinococcus infection. Lung computed tomography with ...
متن کاملSyndrome of left ventricular-right atrial shunt resulting from high interventricular septal defect associated with defective septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve.
Two similar cases of unusual congenital anomalies of the heart are presented, in which there existed a direct communication between the left ventricle and the right auricle through a defect involving the membranous portion of the interventricular septum with defective formation of the medial leaflet of the tricuspid valve. Data obtained at catheterization, operative and postmortem findings are ...
متن کاملPersistent atrial standstill in familial Ebstein's anomaly.
Persistent atrial standstill occurred in a father and his youngest son with familial Ebstein's anomaly. In both cases routine electrocardiograms showed no atrial electrical activity and cross sectional echocardiograms showed inferior displacement of the septal tricuspid leaflet and tethering of the tricuspid leaflets to the right ventricle. The father had a cerebral embolism and died of a myoca...
متن کاملRight atrial approach for repairing a posterior ventricular septal rupture: a case report
BACKGROUND Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a life-threatening complication following acute transmural myocardial infarction. Posteriorly located ruptures are one of the main predictors of poor prognoses because of the surgical difficulties associated with this location. CASE PRESENTATION A 72-year-old man with a posterior VSR underwent surgical repair via the right atrial approach. The pa...
متن کاملA Primary Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma of the Right Atrium: Report of a Case and Literature Review
Primary cardiac epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is extremely uncommon. To our knowledge, only fourteen cases have been reported. We report a case of a primary EHE of the right atrium which incidentally detected in 77-year-old woman. Echocardiograhpy revealed a 26 × 16 mm right atrial mass attached to the base of the interatrial septum and moderate regurgitation of the tricuspid valve. Th...
