초록

심장점액종은 심장에 나타날 수 있는 가장 흔한 원발성 종양이다. 주된 증상으로 고열, 체중감소, 피로, 권태감, 관절통 등을 호소할 수 있어 감염성 심내막염의 증상과 비슷하지만 감염되는 경우는 극히 드물다. 본원에서는 76세 남자환자가 고열 및 일시적인 의식소실을 주소로 응급실로 내원하였으며 좌심방 점액종의 진단하에 저혈압성 쇼크에 빠져 응급으로 수술을 시행한 감염된 좌심방 점액종을 보고 하고자 한다.

Myxoma is the most common primary tumor of the heart. The common symptoms of myxoma can be similar to those of infective endocarditis, which include fever, weight loss, fatigue and arthralgia, but it is very rare for a myxoma to become infected. We report on a case of a 76-year-old male patient with fever and loss of conscious-ness, and he underwent an emergency operation after suffering shock state due to the infected myxoma.
