Multimodal cardiac imaging and endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration for accurate diagnosis and management of giant primary pericardial schwannoma: a case report with literature review
The integrative approach of multimodal cardiac imaging and EUS-FNA can effectively guide the surgical approach and management of primary pericardial schwannomas preoperatively. EUS-FNA may be an effective and safe method in the management of cardiac schwannomas. To our knowledge, this is the first case in which EUS-FNA has been used for the diagnosis of cardiac schwannoma.
