%X UNASSIGNED: Idiopathic cardiac osseous metaplasia in the right atrium of a 9-year-old boy, accompanied by right atrial Chiari network and right pulmonary artery embolism. This case is rare and can easily be misdiagnosed.
UNASSIGNED: We encountered a case of a 9-year-old boy with a 3.5 cm diameter neoplasm in the right atrium. Preoperative imaging diagnosis could not determine the nature of the tumor, and the initial clinical suspicion of cardiac myxoma. After admission, a cardiotomy to remove foreign bodies and a pulmonary artery thrombectomy were performed.
UNASSIGNED: Idiopathic cardiac osseous metaplasia is relatively rare, and it is even rarer to be accompanied by a Chiari network in the right atrium. Due to the location and characteristics of the lesion in this case, it is easy to be misdiagnosed as atrial myxoma in clinical practice. Whether it is idiopathic osseous metaplasia or myxoma, it needs to be performed surgical treatment and pathological examination can easily rule out the diagnosis of myxoma. However, as idiopathic cardiac metaplasia is difficult to encounter in clinical work and there are few reports in the literature, clinicians and pathologists need to consult more relevant literature. Learn to understand and master the disease through multi-party consultation.
