Cardiac leiomyosarcoma. Case report.

A case of primary cardiac leiomyosarcoma diagnosed at Iaşi Cardiology Center is presented. The study was made on the surgical biopsy specimen, and the diagnosis by routine morphological techniques. The gross examination revealed a large intracavitary left atrial tumor attached by a small sessile base to the left posterior atrial wall, having a smooth, white-gray surface, and a dense consistency. On the cut surface, the tumor had a whirled white appearance, with focal brown areas. The microscopic examination revealed the presence of a spindle cell tumor, forming fascicles orientated at right angles. The study revealed the morphological aspect characteristic to leiomyosarcoma.

[Morphologic and clinical correlations in medullar thymoma].

The medullar thymoma is a rare and distinctive epithelial thymoma, a thymic tumor characterized histologically by a mixture of spindle epithelial cells and lymphoid cells. We are presenting this tumor to a 68 years old man, admitted at CCI, for a mediastinal tumor, treated by tumorectomy, for revealing the cytological, histological and immunohistochemical characteristic features. The surgical biopsy was prepared by using usual histological techniques and haematoxilin eosin and Van Gieson stainings. We are discussing the relation between the thymoma clinicopathological and prognostic features, resulting a clear correlation between histological type and clinical study. We also pointed the Muller-Hermelink thymoma histological subtypes and their correspondence with OMS histological types, reflecting realistically the thymoma clinical behavior.

Cardiac consequences of the systemic lupus erythematosus therapy with corticosteroids morphological study.

It is presented the case of a fifty years old women, diagnosed 3 years ago with systemic lupus erythematosus, under therapy with prednisone and cyclophosphamid therapy. She was admitted in our hospital for right decompensated heart disease and the presence of an apical right ventricular mass occluding part of the right ventricular cavity. The endomyocardial biopsy was made to clearify the nature of this mass. After processing the specimen, the histological study evidenciated an organizing apical thrombotic mass formed in a large right ventricular cavity in conditions of pulmonary hypertention. There are presented data concerning the adverse effects of the systemic lupus erythematosus drug therapy, as well. In these circumstances, we demonstrated histologically, that both conditions could alter the heart morphology.
