ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Intracardiac blood cysts are an exceedingly rare occurrence in adulthood. Detailed imaging modalities aid in the diagnosis of such incidental lesions and procedure planning.METHODS:
We report the case of a 51-year-old male accusing dyspnea on exertion as a sole symptom which led to the discovery of multiple cardiac anomalies, namely, severe aortic valve insufficiency on a bicuspid aortic valve, ascending aortic aneurysm, a cystic mass on the tricuspid valve, patent foramen ovale, and an occluded right coronary artery.RESULTS:
The disorders were managed in a single surgical intervention, the resected mass being confirmed as a blood cyst.CONCLUSIONS:
Our case presents a unique association of cardiac disorders, including a highly uncommon intracardiac blood-filled cyst, and underlines the importance of multimodality imaging and interdisciplinary approach in the successful management of such complex cases.Palavras-chave
