Intramyocardial cartilage has never been reported in the human heart before. In the literature, the only reported localizations of cartilage in the heart were in the central fibrous body and the valves. We report a case of an unusual presence of cartilage tissue within the myocardial wall of the left ventricle in a 10-year-old boy who died unexpectedly. This case presents an interesting, unusual and apparently asymptomatic sudden cardiac death related to a cartilaginous myocardial tumor. Conducting system disturbance secondary to the myocardial tumor is the probable cause of death. This case is relevant not only for its singularity and originality, but also for the diverse and controversial hypotheses related to the onset of cartilaginous tissue in the myocardial wall. Early detection of this tumor by modern thoracic imaging may have prevented a fatal unexpected outcome.

意外致死性心肌内软骨肿瘤:病理生理学、死亡机制和文献复习

以前从未在人类心脏中报道过心肌内软骨。在文献中,唯一报道的心脏软骨定位在中央纤维体和瓣膜中。我们报告了一例意外死亡的 10 岁男孩左心室心肌壁内异常存在的软骨组织。该病例呈现了与软骨心肌肿瘤相关的有趣、不寻常且明显无症状的心源性猝死。继发于心肌肿瘤的传导系统障碍是可能的死亡原因。这个案例不仅与它的奇异性和原创性有关,而且与与心肌壁软骨组织发病有关的多样化和有争议的假设有关。
