Abstract

The antemortem diagnosis of secondary cardiac involvement by lymphoma remains suboptimal. Prognosis is worse with delayed diagnosis as the tumor burden increases with the multicompartment participation. Chemotherapy may improve survival, but there is a risk of mortality due to treatment-related complications, such as myocardial rupture and fatal arrhythmias. Modified chemotherapy regimens may prevent such complications, but the data are limited. We report the case of a 72-year-old woman diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with cardiac involvement, where early diagnosis prevented cardiac complications from the disease and its treatment as well. The aim of this case report is to highlight the fact that cardiac involvement in lymphoma is frequent and can be easily missed, leading to complications. Treatment requires an individualized approach.

淋巴瘤继发心房隔膜肿块的罕见病例:病例报告与文献综述
淋巴瘤继发心脏受累的死前诊断仍不理想。随着多室参与的肿瘤负荷增加,延迟诊断的预后会更差。化疗可提高生存率,但存在因治疗相关并发症(如心肌破裂和致命性心律失常)导致死亡的风险。改进化疗方案可预防此类并发症,但相关数据有限。我们报告了一例被诊断为弥漫大 B 细胞淋巴瘤并累及心脏的 72 岁女性病例,该病例的早期诊断避免了疾病及其治疗引起的心脏并发症。本病例报告旨在强调,淋巴瘤累及心脏的情况很常见,而且很容易被漏诊,从而导致并发症。治疗需要因人而异。
