Key result
Surgery, R-CHOP, and physiological pacing achieve two-year complete remission in primary cardiac lymphoma with AV block.
Why the study?
Primary cardiac lymphoma is an extremely rare and highly aggressive malignancy that typically presents with nonspecific cardiac symptoms.

Case Report (n=1)
A tailored approach combining surgical resection, fractionated R-CHOP chemotherapy, and physiological pacing can yield favorable outcomes in patients with primary cardiac lymphoma complicated by heart failure and complete atrioventricular block.
Liu et al. (2025) conducted a case report in Primary cardiac lymphoma (diffuse large B-cell lymphoma) with heart failure and third-degree atrioventricular block (n=1). Surgical resection, fractionated R-CHOP chemotherapy, and physiological pacing was evaluated on Complete remission and tumor recurrence. In a patient with primary cardiac lymphoma and third-degree atrioventricular block, surgical resection, fractionated R-CHOP, and physiological pacing led to complete remission at two years.
