Case report of the successful removal of a haemangioma of the left ventricle in a paediatric patient

This publication presents the clinical observation in a paediatric patient with haemangioma of the left stomach. The effectiveness of surgical treatment of this disease is also noted. We assess the challenges in diagnosis and the choice of treatment of this pathology in children and the effectiveness of surgical treatment disease. Primary cardiac tumours are rare; vascular tumours and haemangiomas are rarer. The clinical picture of heart haemangioma is non-specific and varies as per its location and size. Echocardiography is the main diagnostic method for this disease. However, in most cases of preoperative diagnostic examination, the pre-surgery diagnosis is not confirmed. The final diagnosis of capillary haemangioma is established following immunohistochemical staining of the surgical material. Thus far, owing to the rare occurrence, a generally accepted tactic for the treatment of such patients with vascular heart tumours has not been developed. This clinical case describes our experience of treating a rare pathology in children with unusual localisation as well as the rapid successful surgical removal of the tumour without complications and with a favourable post-surgery recovery period.
