Between I 9H I and 1993,30 cases of primary cardiac tumors were diagnosed at the Imam Khomeini Hospital. 20 patients were female and 10 were male, with an average age of 32 years (ranging from 17 days to 65 years of age). The mean duration of symptoms before diagnosis was 6 months, with dyspnea and palpitation being the most common symptoms (60%) and cardiac' murmurs the most usual signs (...

cardiac rhabdomyomas are the most common primary cardiac tumors in children. these tumors are generally asymptomatic, although they may be associated with neonatal tuberous sclerosis complex. despite the fact that thyroid dysfunction rarely occurs in tuberous sclerosis, papillary adenomas (hamartomas) of the thyroid gland have been reported in a number of autopsies. herein, we present the case ...

Primary cardiac tumors are very rare. Cardiac sarcomas can be detected at any age, regardless of gender. At diagnosis, these mostly symptomatic and one-third metastatic. Undifferentiated pleomorphic account for 1.7% all tumors, typically localized in the left atrium, involve mitral valve. Here we present a case atrial undifferentiated sarcoma with myogenic differentiation that clinically radiol...
