Right atrial hemangioma in the newborn: Utility of fetal imaging

Abstract: We present a rare primary right atrial tumor diagnosed in-utero with fetal echocardiography, and further characterized as a congenital hemangioma with magnetic resonance imaging. Surgical resection was done six days after birth. This case illustrates the complementary roles of evolving advanced imaging techniques for fetuses and infants with congenital heart disease that allows for surgery early in the neonatal period.

“…В последующем, вплоть до настоящего времени, в отечественных и преимуще-ственно зарубежных работах излагаются, как правило, единичные наблюдения по рассматриваемой патоло-гии. Их анализ свидетельствует о том, что гемангиомы сердца возникают в любом возрасте, начиная от неона-тального периода, у больных мужского и женского пола с незначительным преобладанием у последних [5,6,[9][10][11][12]. Они происходят из эндокарда, миокарда или эпи-карда, поражая любые камеры сердца, наиболее часто его правые отделы, а также межпредсердную или межжелудочковую перегородку, клапанные структуры, перикард.…”
