CTICasesCardiac Hemangioma
Imaging findings
Chest CT and cardiac MRI show a well-defined, lobulated cardiac mass compressing the coronary sinus. The lesion demonstrates progressive, slow filling with contrast on delayed imaging phases, characteristic of a hemangioma. High signal intensity is noted on T2-weighted MRI sequences.
Key takeaways
Cardiac hemangiomas are rare, benign primary cardiac tumors. They are vascular lesions that can arise in any chamber of the heart or the pericardium. CT and MRI features typically show slow, progressive nodular enhancement on delayed phases and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images, mirroring the enhancement patterns of hepatic hemangiomas.
