Cardiac rhabdomyoma with LVOT obstruction and anorectal malformation in a neonate: A rare association

Abstract

a b s t r a c t Cardiac rhabdomyomas are described as sporadic as well as associated with Tuberous sclerosis. Association with LVOT Obstruction with anorectal malformation or imperforate anus has not been reported so far in published literature. In this case report we describe one such case.

“…Spontaneous tumor regression may occur when cells cease mitotic proliferation and undergo apoptosis, with complete resolution occurring in some. Cardiac rhabdomyoma can be either sporadic or syndromic, the latter usually linked to Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) [Kaushik et al, ]; a pathogenic mutation in TSC1 or TSC2 is detected in 52–86% of patients with rhabdomyoma [Chaurasia et al, ].…”
