متن کاملManagement of Hypertension in Intrapericardial Paraganglioma
Functioning paraganglioma is extra-adrenal catecholamine-secreting tumours that may cause secondary hypertension. Primary intrapericardial paragangliomas are very rare and are located adjacent to the great vessels or heart, typically near the left atrium. These tumours are an exceptionally uncommon finding during the investigation of refractory hypertension. However, in recent years, intraperic...
متن کاملSuccessful Removal of Giant Intrapericardial Paraganglioma via Posterolateral Thoracotomy
Intrapericardial paraganglioma remains a surgical challenge because of its hypervascular nature and firm adhesion to adjacent mediastinal structures. Here, we describe a 63-year-old female with a giant nonfunctioning intrapericardial paraganglioma tightly adhered to the left atrium. Marginal but complete resection of the tumor was achieved via right posterolateral thoracotomy. At the time of di...
متن کاملFunctioning intrapericardial paraganglioma: multimodality imaging findings and pathological correlation.
A 38-year-old man presented with a 3-month history of night sweats, nonproductive cough, and weight loss. He denied chest pain or shortness of breath. A transesophageal echocardiogram showed a large mass adjacent to the aortic root likely arising from the pericardium or the left ventricle (Figure 1 and Movie I in the online-only Data Supplement). Invasive coronary angiography revealed a highly ...
متن کاملIntrapericardial paraganglioma with intratumoral coronary arterial aneurysm and an arteriovenous fistula.
The authors present the case of a 55-year-old woman with a nonfunctioning intrapericardial paraganglioma. The tumor was incidentally found during transthoracic echocardiography that was performed because an enlarged cardiac silhouette had been noted on a chest x-ray. Transesophageal echocardiography further elucidated that the left circumflex coronary artery branched and traversed into the intr...
