DIAGNOSIS AND EMERGENCY SURGICAL TREATMENT OF GIANT LEFT ATRIAL SARCOMA: CLINICAL CASES

https://doi.org/10.29001/2073-8552-2019-34-1-130-136

Abstract

We present two clinical cases of the late primary diagnosis of cardiac sarcoma with an unusual intracavitary growth in the left atrium with the left atrioventricular orifice obstruction requiring an emergency surgical intervention. A variety of concomitant clinical symptoms that mask the underlying pathological process and impede differential diagnosis has been described.
