ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the clinical experience of surgical intervention for cardiac neoplasm in a fetus . Methods A 32-year-old pregnant woman was admitted to our hospital for complaint of fetal cardiac neoplasm .A separated het-erogenic cardiac occupying lesion was identigied at right atrium of the fetus by echocardiography , whose size is 2.85 cm ×2.25 cm, but the pathogenic origin still remained uncertain, maybe originate from ether pericardium or atrium.The annulus of tri-cuspid valve was compressed nearly 50% with the presence of amount of pericardial effusion.The fetal heart rate decreased at some fetal position resulting in the compression to the heart.So an Ex-utero Intrapartum Therapy(EXIT) procedure was per-formed under the supply of placenta at the 32 weeks of pregnancy.Cesarean section was performed with intact umbilicus and fe-tal circulation by obstetricians.Consequently, the median sternotomy of this fetus and pericardiotomy were performed , with 30 ml clear pericardial effusion drained .The tumor was confirmed to be giant right atrial neoplasm after the intraoperative explora-tion.Considering on the high risk of the cardiopulmonary bypass and limited time for EXIT , the giant atrial neoplasm was left alone with delayed sternum closure after the effectively decompression of the heart .The omphalotomy was successfully per-formed after the EXIT surgery.The neoplasm resection and the repair for its defect on right atrium were performed with cardiop-ulmonary bypass 2 days later.Results Convalesce of this mother was quite good after cesarean resetion .Hemodynamics of the premature baby was satisfatory after the resection of right atrial neoplasm which pathological report was benign hemangioma . Conclusion Via multiple disciplines collaboration , EXIT intervention for fetus is feasible and safe under adequate prepara-tion.
