Pedunculated Hemangioma in the Left Ventricle: Case Report in an Asymptomatic Young Patient

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Cardiac hemangiomas are benign neoplasms of extremely rare occurrence and, in most cases, asymptomatic, commonly detected incidentally during examinations performed for other clinical indications. To confirm the diagnosis and prevent potential complications, surgical excision followed by histopathological analysis is recommended. In this case report, we describe a left ventricular hemangioma incidentally identified during an echocardiographic examination.
