Abstract

The American Journal of Cardiology MARCH 26e29, 2015 11 IN AND C was attempted in 7 of the patients (2 teratoma, 1 papillerfibroelastoma, 1 fetal type rhabdomyoma, 1 TBS associated rhabdomyoma producing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, 1 cystic tumor with granulomatous inflammation and 1 undiagnosed solid mass). Of the patients 3 died in perioperative period. Conclusion: Most of cardiac tumours during childhood are benign. Spontaneus regression is most probably possible in cases of TBS associated rhabdomyoma. Surgical intervention is only required for children who develop clinical symptoms due to hemodynamic instability.
