Successful treatment of primary cardiac lymphoma and pulmonary tumor embolism with chemotherapy.

Abstract:

:A 72-year-old man with a large mass in the right atrium and the pulmonary embolism by chest computed tomography was diagnosed as the primary cardiac B-cell lymphoma (PCL) with pulmonary tumor embolism and pericardial effusion. Upon completion of initial chemotherapy, the mass was markedly reduced, and the pulmonary embolism disappeared on magnetic resonance imaging. This rarely diagnosed entity is treatable with chemotherapy for both PCL and pulmonary embolism.

  • Aortic dissection in the thrombolytic era: early recognition and optimal management is a prerequisite for increased survival.

    abstract::Based on two case reports, problems of diagnosis and treatment of aortic dissection are discussed. Thrombolytic treatment given to patients with aortic dissection presenting symptoms mimicking acute MI seems to have a fatal outcome. Indications, as well as contra-indications, for thrombolytic therapy are therefore of ...
