Pediatric Cardiology

Neoplastic Disorder of Pediatric Heart

The primary cardiac finding in people with the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is the presence of rhabdomyomas. Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a cancer made up of cells that normally develop into cardiac muscles. A cardiac fibroma  (also known as cardiac fibromatosis, fibrous hamartoma, or fibroelastic hamartoma) represents a collection of fibroblasts interspersed among large amounts of collagen. Other types of the cardiac cancer are Osteogenic Sarcomas, Liposarcoma, Lipomas, Mesotheliomas  , Fibroelastic  Papillomas and Papillary Tumors. These are very rare in children’s.
