Overview
Rhabdomyoma is a benign tumor of striated muscle. Rhabdomyomas are rare and can be classified into cardiac type and extracardiac type.The most common primary benign pediatric tumor of the heart is cardiac rhabdomyoma which can be seen mainly in fetal life and children, second most common primary benign cardiac tumor in children is fibroma. Most tumors regress spontaneously, prognosis depends on the location of tumor and size. Cardiac rhabdomyoma is strongly associated with tuberous sclerosis. Cardiac rhabdomyoma is seen almost always in the pediatric age group and is associated with tuberous sclerosis, neurofibromatosis, and sebaceous adenomas. Extracardiac rhabdomyoma can be divided into three groups (adult, fetal, and genital types) with distinct clinical and morphological differences. The adult type is a slowly growing mass which typically involves the head and neck. Fetal type is seen in the head and neck region. The genital type is almost always found in the vulvovaginal region of older women. Treatment of adult type rhabdomyoma of head and neck depends upon the severity of clinical symptoms. Conservative management or surgery may be necessary depending upon the type and tumor stage.
History and symptoms
- The majority of cases regress spontaneously(partial or complete),however there are reported cases which surgical interventions were necessary,especially if tumor causes cardiac symptoms such as arrhythmia or obstruction. [1][2][3]
- Early clinical features include heart failure, cardiac murmur, and arrhythmia.
- Tumors larger in diameter are more likely to cause arrhythmias or hemodynamic instability, which are associated with an increased risk of death.
- The majority of patients with cardiac rhabdomyoma remain asymptomatic; however, some affected patients become symptomatic in the perinatal period.
- Symptoms of adult rhabdomyoma may include:[4]
- Hoarseness
- Difficulty breathing
- Difficulty swallowing(dysphagia)
- laryngeal mass
- In a very rare occassion can present with symptoms of hyperparathyroidism if it involves parathyroid gland. [5]
- Symptoms of genital rhabdomyoma may include the following:
- Symptoms of cardiac rhabdomyoma may include the following:
- In cardiac rhabdomyoma, symptoms if present, may be caused by obstruction of blood flow through the heart or consist of rhythm disturbances, such as heart block and ventricular tachycardia.[6][7]
