Key result
Surgical excision and histopathology confirm an asymptomatic, incidentally found LV cardiac hemangioma.
Why the study?
Cardiac hemangiomas are extremely rare benign neoplasms, mostly asymptomatic and usually detected incidentally, with surgical excision and histopathological analysis recommended to confirm diagnosis and prevent complications.
Cardiac hemangiomas are extremely rare benign neoplasms that can be incidentally detected by echocardiography and are typically treated with surgical excision.
Supports excision of incidental cardiac masses for diagnosis; extends literature on rare benign ventricular hemangiomas.
Cardiac hemangiomas are benign neoplasms of extremely rare occurrence and, in most cases, asymptomatic, commonly detected incidentally during examinations performed for other clinical indications. To confirm the diagnosis and prevent potential complications, surgical excision followed by histopathological analysis is recommended. In this case report, we describe a left ventricular hemangioma incidentally identified during an echocardiographic examination.
