  Physical examination of the patient can reveal a heart murmur, a reduction in peripheral pulse or cyanosis. The appearance of cardiac arrhythmias is not infrequent, and has been described with a higher incidence of Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome. [revespcardiol.org]

  Cyanosis and decreased peripheral pulses can result. Death occurs because of obstruction of ventricular blood flow, arrhythmias, valve stenosis, or loss of functional myocardium secondary to extensive tumor involvement. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  Decreased fetal growth has also been associated with rhabdomyoma. 11 – 18,30 Clinically, in addition to serious arrhythmias, severe cyanosis, mental retardation, seizures, cutaneous lesions, and visceral tumors may be observed in the neonate or infant [radiologykey.com]

• Cardiomegaly

  Cardiac rhabdomyoma is frequently multiple and asymptomatic, but the tumour may cause cardiomegaly, heart failure by causing outflow obstruction, arrhythmias, thromboembolic disease or sudden unexpected death. [histopathology-india.net]

  Chest X-ray was suggestive of gross cardiomegaly with a cardiothoracic ratio of 90%. The left lung was not visualized [Figure 1]. ECG was suggestive of regular sinus rhythm and right ventricular hypertrophy. [jcnonweb.com]

  Myxomas, if large and prolapsing through the atrioventricular valve, can cause an added noise known as 'tumour plop' as the mass impacts against the endocardial wall at the beginning of ventricular systole. [patient.info]

The overall prognosis is dependent on the number, size and location of the lesions as well as the presence or absence of associated anomalies. [radiopaedia.org]

Benign cardiac tumors in childhood have an excellent prognosis when completely excised and appear to have a good short-time prognosis even when excision is incomplete. [9] Indications of surgery include presence of significant symptoms in combination [jcnonweb.com]

It should also be noted that symptomatic patients generally have a poorer prognosis than those who are asymptomatic [ 5 ]. A review of all papers on cardiac rhabdomyomas published up to 1990 is available [ 11 ]. [em-consulte.com]

Treatment of metastatic cancer depends on tumor type and origin; prognosis is generally poor. Primary cardiac tumors are found in 1/2000 people at autopsy. Metastatic tumors are 30 to 40 times more common. [msdmanuals.com]

The etiology of rhabdomyoma is unknown. Studies have delineated at least two genetic loci on the long arm of chromosome 9 (9q34) and the long arm of chromosome 11 (11q23). [5] Rhabdomyoma resembles a hamartoma derived from embryonal myoblasts. [jcnonweb.com]

In the Anura (frogs and toads) the whole ventricle is filled with a spongy network which prevents the arterial and venous blood from the two auricles mixing to any great extent. [thefullwiki.org]

For a patient with obvious symptoms, a resection of the tumor to release the symptoms and prevent further complications and risk of sudden death should be considered since there is a high probability of arrhythmias and ventricular tachycardia [4]. [oatext.com]
