Abstract

Background: Cardiac myxoma with glandular differentiation is a rare finding. It accounts for approximately ≤ 3% of all cardiac myxomas. The presence of cellular atypia resembling adenocarcinoma is an extremely rare finding in cardiac myxoma.

Case presentation: Here, we present a case of villiform cardiac myxoma with atypical glandular differentiation in a 16-year-old Indo-Aryan girl, which was initially mistaken as metastatic adenocarcinoma on routine histology.

Conclusion: A thorough histopathological examination, supported by immunohistochemical and radiological correlation, assists in accurate diagnosis and concurrently evades the misdiagnosis of metastatic adenocarcinoma.

年轻女孩绒毛状心脏黏液瘤伴非典型腺分化1例报告。

背景：心脏黏液瘤伴腺分化是一种罕见的发现。它约占所有心脏黏液瘤的3%。在心脏黏液瘤中出现类似腺癌的细胞异型是一种极为罕见的发现。病例报告：我们报告一例16岁的印度雅利安女孩的非典型腺分化的肠状心脏黏液瘤，在常规组织学上最初被误认为转移性腺癌。结论：充分的组织病理学检查，在免疫组化和影像学相关的支持下，有助于准确诊断，同时避免转移性腺癌的误诊。
