  4 July 2016

  Synopsis
  patchy scarring was diffuse throughout the circumference of the left ventricle of the heart.
  myocardium : diffuse infiltration of rhabdomyoma-like cells with significant associated fibrosis.
  Differential diagnosis
  Unlike cardiac rhabdomyoma, there was no discrete tumor mass.
  Differential diagnoses considered are :
  congenital cardiac rhabdomyoma with partial regression ,
  cardiac fibroma ,
  histiocytoid cardiomyopathy ,
  glycogen storage diseases ( GSDs ), (...)

• metastatic cardiac myxoma
  27 June 2016

  Cardiac myxomas ( cardiac myxoma ) are the most frequent benign tumors among the primary cardiac neoplasms, with ossification in 8% of cases, and left atrial myxoma is more likely to be ossified than right atrial myxoma.
  Multiple myxomas may occur in association with Carney complex, a syndrome characterized by multiple neoplasia featuring cardiac, endocrine, cutaneous, and neural tumors.
  However, the family history and the physical, radiological, and laboratory examinations ruled out this (...)
