Surgical Treatment of Cardiac Tumors: A Single-Center Experience
Data from this study strongly suggest that surgical removal is a viable and largely successful treatment approach for cardiac tumors. Clinical outcomes such as discharge status, postoperative condition, and length of survival after procedures are similar to those from other referral centers for such conditions. Complete resection was possible in 90% of our study cases; 85% of patients in this study surgically treated for cardiac tumors are alive after 2 years.
