Acute pulmonary embolism resulting from cardiac tumors associated with tuberous sclerosis.

Abstract:

:A case report of a neonate with cardiac tumors in association with tuberous sclerosis is presented. The rare complication of pulmonary embolism and its successful treatment by anticoagulation and thrombolytic therapy is described. The treatment of these cardiac tumors is conservative, because the tumors regress spontaneously when the diagnosis is made in infancy. However, embolic event may rarely occur as a complication of cardiac tumors. If the cardiac tumors are treated conservatively, it is important to pay close attention to the occurrence of pulmonary embolism during the follow-up period.
