“…Another feature of rhabdomyomas is the possible spontaneous regression, occurring in more than 50% of cases. [ 4 6 ] A lower capacity for regression in tumors located in the right atrium is reported,[ 7 ] and this is the area where the tumor that we are presenting is located. Due to its benign nature and its ability to regress, surgery is recommended only for those patients with hemodynamic compromise or for those with refractory dysrhythmias.…”

Neonatal supraventricular extrasystole as early clinical debut of cardiac rhabdomyoma

et al. 2018

We are reporting the case of a newborn with a diagnosis of frequent supraventricular extrasystoles, up to 25% of beats at Holter monitoring, and partial response to beta-blockers. Initial echocardiographic studies were normal until the identification of a right atrial mass at 4 months of life. Given the progressive growth of the mass and the suspicion of myxoma or thrombus in the magnetic resonance study, surgical resection of the tumor was performed. The surgical specimen was histologically diagnostic of rhabdomyoma. Currently, the patient remains asymptomatic after a 6-year follow-up period. A single rhabdomyoma is described, located in an atypical situation, near the crista terminalis, and diagnosed from frequent extrasystoles which appeared before the echocardiographic resolution was able to identify it. Magnetic resonance showed nondiagnostic tissue enhancement characteristics.

“…The diagnosis of rhabdomyoma was unlikely since, normally, they are isointense in T1 and slightly hyperintense in T2 and do not present enhancement with intravenous contrast administration, and they are mainly located in ventricles. [ 6 ] The final diagnosis however is always anatomopathological.…”

“…Cardiac myxomas are the most common primary neoplasm and account for about half of all primary benign cardiac tumors [87, 88]. The majority (75%) arise within the left atrium, typically at the interatrial septum near the limbus of the fossa ovalis.…”

ObjectiveIncidental cardiac findings are often found on chest CT studies, some of which may be clinically significant. The objective of this pictorial review is to illustrate and describe the appearances and management of the most frequently encountered significant cardiac findings on non-electrocardiographically gated thoracic CT. Most radiologists will interpret multidetector chest CT and should be aware of the imaging appearances, significance, and the appropriate next management steps, when incidental significant cardiac disease is encountered on thoracic CT.ConclusionThis article reviews significant incidental cardiac findings which may be encountered on chest CT studies. After completing this review, the reader should not only be familiar with recognizing clinically significant cardiac findings seen on thoracic CT examinations but also have the confidence to direct their further management.
