چکیده

y edemas maleolares gravitativos, junto a síncopes desencadenados por maniobras de Valsalva. En la exploración física destacaba la presencia de ingurgitación yugular, pulso paradójico y hepatomegalia. Un ecocardiograma transtorácico evidenció la presencia de una masa retroesternal que comprimía la pared anterior de ventrículo derecho. La resonancia magnética cardiaca y la tomografía axial computarizada confirmaron la presencia de una masa de intensidad heterogénea, que sugería densidad grasa (fig. 1). En los informes quirúrgicos se refería la interposición de grasa mediastínica debido a laceración del ventrículo derecho. Se realizó tratamiento quirúrgico que comprobó la presencia de una masa que correspondía a grasa degenerada, que fue resecada en su totalidad, con descompresión cardiaca. El curso postoperatorio cursó sin complicaciones. Seis meses después de la intervención la paciente permanece asintomática. La pared libre del ventrículo derecho es extremadamente friable, especialmente cuando el miocardio está tapizado por grasa epicárdica, circunstancia mucho más frecuente en edades avanzadas. En estos casos, para evitar el desarrollo de laceraciones cardiacas las maniobras de manipulación cardiaca durante cualquier cirugía deben de realizarse con sumo cuidado2,3. Se han descrito diversas técnicas quirúrgicas de reparación miocárdica a seguir sobre todo en pacientes de edad avanzada.
