چکیده
BACKGROUND Intracardiac leiomyomatosis (ICL) is a rare benign neoplasm of the smooth muscle in the uterus extending into the heart. Complete resection is difficult because of the extensive range. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of one-stage complete resection of a giant ICL with moderate hypothermia extracorporeal circulation and beating heart technique. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of 36 months follow-up was very good.

Tracheal Chondrosarcoma Excised With Extracorporeal Circulation
Introduction: Tracheal chondrosarcoma (TCS) is a rare malignancy, with only 19 cases described in the literature to date. Case presentation: Herein, we presented the third-largest TCS with such an airway compromise that neither orotracheal intubation nor jet ventilation or even tracheostomy was possible. So, extracorporeal circulation was needed to excise the tumor in a one-stage procedure. Th...
متن کاملUnusual abdominal tumors with intracardiac extension. Two cases with successful surgical resection.
Abdominal tumors that can grow through vascular lumen and spread to the right heart are rare. Although these tumors have different histologic aspects, they may cause similar abdominal and cardiac symptoms and are a serious risk factor for pulmonary embolism and sudden death when they reach the right atrium and tricuspid valve. The best treatment is radical surgical resection of the entire tumor...

متن کاملeComment. Leiomyomatosis: intracardiac extension and pulmonary embolization.
I read with great interest the article by Li et al. [1]. As rightly outlined in this remarkable review of the literature, extracting data solely from case reports is associated with an inherited bias. Only three intraoperative deaths were recorded, thus yielding a mortality rate of 1.5%. The one-stage approach in which a thoraco-laparotomy is performed under cardiopulmonary bypass with or witho...
