The dermatologic lesions and hypomelanotic macules are usually present at birth. [7] Our patient had no evidence of tuberous sclerosis. [jcnonweb.com]

Clinical presentation: Clinical profile varies from still-birth to intrauterine myocardial infarct (due to coronary artery compression). [histopathology-india.net]

The patient presented with a systolic murmur (graded 3/6) with a palpable thrill, no cyanosis, and no edema. [jtd.amegroups.com]

Some patients may present with only renal and pulmonary manifestations while in some skin or neurological manifestations might be absent. However, in our case, the patient had skin and neurological features as the presenting complaints. [mjdrdypu.org]

• 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]

  Other late-occurring cutaneous manifestations of tuberous sclerosis include subcutaneous nodules, subungual fibromas, linear epidermal nevi, and café-au-lait pigmentation. Seizures during the neonatal period are not infrequent. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Treatment of benign tumors is usually surgical resection; tumors may recur. 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. [msdmanuals.com]

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]

Rhabdomyoma should be differentiated from other tumors and cardiac foci that have a very different prognosis. The editor of Images in Cardiovascular Medicine is Hugh A. [circ.ahajournals.org]

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]
